I have a 2007 toyota camry. The driver side visor just hangs and obstructs the view. The internal bracket that holds it up gave out. I have been told by my mechanic that it is a design flaw. This is a serious safety issue. Toyota refuses to replace the visor because i am told this things wear out. I tend to believe it was engineered this way on purpose to make the customer buy replacement parts. Can you look into…

2007 toyota camry le. The sun visor broke and is hanging down directly in my driving vision. I put it to the side but it doesn't stay. I drive into the sun. This is a safety hazard and i can see on line it's not uncommon. I have duct taped it to the ceiling for now. Toyota wants over $200 to fix. This should never break, and it break seems like it's inside the visor itself. *kb

While driving into the sun, i pulled my visor down to block the sun. The visor broke & hung limply in my face, blocking my view. When i tried to move it out of the way, it wouldn't stay. In order to drive safely, i ended up pulling off to the side of the road, and figuring out how to detach it, so that it would not block my vision. *tr

The driver side sun visor on my 2007 toyota camry le broke. The plastic snapped which doesn't allow for the visor to stay in place and therefore blocks driver's view. When i looked at where the plastic broke, it seems as if the metal hinge that allows the visor to move up and down caused the plastic to snap in half (near the hinge). I have not yet repaired this as i've noticed that many people have had this issue…

Driver side sun visor fails under normal wear. Once visor is broken it hangs down in the drivers view creating a hazard. There is no possible way to fix the visor to original condition once in a broken state. Replaced visor with toyota oem part. Upon inspection of the broken visor, it was determined that the reason the original visor failed was because the tension bar is dependent on a metal clip that it restrained…

The driver and passenger sun visors do not stay in place when not in use. The hazard is that when a person enters the car, the sun visor hits his or her head if they are not careful. Also, because the sun visor is lower than most normal sun visors, it blocks the driver's view somewhat. I have a 2007 toyota camry and i've had trouble ever since i bought this car brand new in 2007. To correct this failure, i have tied…
