The visor drops down when put up or can be set on a side or can be set full forward closer to the front glass, but it can easily move. The sun visor weight is to heavy for the design and making it faulty. A toyota dealer employee mention it is a common problem on "all rav 4" of the same model. The incident happen driving up a hill with the visor full forward as to cover oneself from the direct sun.
