| Description of the problem | Have an 2003 toyota highlander that i bought new. Have used sun visors on a regular basis, as they were intended to be used. The driver side sun visor keeps falling down and blocking my view. This particularly happens when any bump in the road is run over. This creates a hazard due to limiting my sight. I have attempted to fix by tightening the bolts that hold the visor to the ceiling and by using velcro to hold the visor to the roof. Neither of these worked... The velcro will not stick to the ceiling roof. |
