| Description of the problem | 2011 camry sunvisor became loose and hung down interfering with my view. I tried different methods to hold it up, but they did not work. I removed the sunvisor so it wouldn't block my view, but since at some times during the year i am driving into the direction of the sun, it makes it very hard to see what is in front of the vehicle. Toyota has provided an extended warranty for this defect, but only for certain vin's. The vin list is very limited, and does not cover my vehicle (although it is the same problem). Toyota has called this a warranty problem (pol12-03) and not a safety recall, but it is definitely a safety item. |
