Component | VISIBILITY |
Product type code | VEHICLE |
Description of the problem | The sun visor position retaining clip separated from the plastic molding and the visor will not remain up. The visor impedes visibility to the front. It can be moved out of the way to the left but that partially blocks my view of the side mirror. Since the visor is freely swinging sometimes it stops tilted toward the driver. In the event of a crash this could result in head injury. The loss of visibility toward the front is significant for drivers with a higher seating position. From several forums this appears to be an issue from at least the 2008 to 2010 toyota model years across all models. |
