Description of the problem	Driver's side sun visor unexpectedly dropped down. Occurred while driving, dangerously obscuring visibility. Have not been able to remedy, it just hangs down. Either have to duck down while driving to see or hold up visor with hand that should be on steering wheel. Have gathered a number of quotes to repair ranging from $236 to $425. Ridiculously expensive to repair, and i believe, should be a recall item as i learned through research, it is a very common problem.
