Sun visor on driver's side will not stay in the up position. It hangs down about 1-2 inches from it's original "up" position. After reading on line about toyota not doing anything to correct the situation with other people, i did not take it to my dealer thinking i would be told it was my car and my problem (not necessarily in those terms). *tr

The driver's side sun visor dropped down unexpectedly and wouldn't stay up unless supported. Very scary to have the sun visor drop down and block ones vision unexpectedly. This could be dangerous if it occurs at the wrong time. An internet search indicates that this is a common problem. Recall is in order before someone gets really hurt or killed.
