Description of the problem | Over the past two years, the driver's side sun visor has periodically popped down. I've thought nothing of it and pushed it back up. This time, i heard a pop and it came all the way down. Now a metal piece is sticking out between the two pieces and the visor swings to and fro as i drive. It obstructs my line of vision whether it is in front of me or to the side. I've called the local toyota dealer about this and they inform me that i have to bring it in to buy a new one. From my research, it is a problem that should be addressed and it is a road and safety hazard. |
