    I had been hearing a clicking noise while using my sunvisor, and one day while driving at a high rate of speed on the interstate, the visor dropped in my face (obstructing my view). I took my car to a dealership for repairs and was quoted at $175.00 with parts and labor. Having this visor either dangling in my face or to the left of my face, is a driving hazard that could result in an accident in which someone could…

    The sunvisor on the driver side of 2007 camry xle does not stay in place. It droops or completely falls down. Started one week ago, no accident or change in use of visor caused this.

    2007 toyota camry; the drivers side sun visor has "popped" & broken loose from the mounting bracket, in such a way that the visor will not remain in a stationary position, and hangs loosely, in line-of-sight for driving. I had to physically hold it with one hand in order to see clearly while driving in mid-day traffic. When i reached my destination i decided to remove the visor entirely because it is a dangerous…

    I have a 2007 toyota camry se and my driver side sun visor broke. It had been making a clicking sound when pulling it down for a few weeks and finally it started to droop and fall down while driving. Now it will not stay up at all and seems to be cracked at the connection to the ceiling of the car. The cost to repair is approximately $180. This is a safety concern as this can impede vision while driving. Also this…

    Both sun visors have broken and will not longer remain up. Driver side was hanging straight down and had to be removed. Passenger side will only stay up at about a 45 degree angle. Both failed suddenly and obscure driver's vision. Upon removing the driver side visor it could be seen that the seam in the plastic was broken and the internal metal clip through which the visor shaft passes slips instead of holding fast.…

    I have a 2007 toyota camry that i purchased used in 2008. For the past couple of months, the driver's side sun visor will not stay up causing it to fall and dangle in the driver's line of sight. This is also distracting while driving at night, i'm having to lean over or bend down to see around the unusable visor.

    Sun visor on driver's side stopped working. For about a year before it stopped, it would make a loud cracking sound anytime i adjusted it. Now it is hanging straight down and impairing my vision. I tied it to the grab bar above my door with cable ties (very attractive!), and it is totally unusable. Driving with the sun in my eyes is not safe and i have good quality sunglasses. I drive east in the am to work and west…

    The sun visor on the driver side will no longer retract to its normal position and now hangs at an awkward angle compromising my field of vision. As the sun visor has rarely been used or even touched, i believe toyota is at fault and should be held responsible for correcting this inconvenient and hazardous defect as soon as possible.

    Driver side sun visor began to droop and would not stay in upward or downward position. Finally had to remove visor in order to see while driving. Now have no visor, and sun glasses do not always provide enough protection from the sun to see while driving. This is a major driving hazard....especially for someone with light-sensitive eyes. The visor is too costly to replace easily for some people. *tr
