My driver side sun visor can not go back to it's position. It's hanging down in front of me and i have hard time to look in front of the vehicle. It is blocking my view. My daughter is little taller and she drives this car too, and it makes the problem worse for her. I called toyota and i was told they couldn't help me with that.

Visibility/Wiper
I noticed the sun visor starting to sag a bit when i put it up to use it or when i closed it. It had done this for a couple months and i thought nothing of it. However one day when i was on the highway traveling at highway speed using it, it fell down and wouldnt go back up into position to use it or to store it away. It was blocking my field of vision and with the sun facing me face that too was blocking my field…

The sun visor will not stay up. Nearly causing me to have accidents. No screws to tighten to stop visor from falling down. Dangerous. Finally after trying everything to keep visor up i had to hot glue the visor to top of car; now i cannot use visor quickly. I cannot afford to go to dealership for repairs. Might need to note that rarely was visor ever used.

The passenger and driver side sun visors fail to stow properly and have deployed unexpectedly while operating the vehicle on numerous occasions to the point it seemed safer to remove the visors. The adverse affect is now being blinded by the sun while driving.
ODI 10995171
Visibility/Wiper
Sun visors have just fallen downward and will not stay up. The drivers side completely fell off while i was driving. Huge safety issue. Toyota extended their warranty on some '07-'11 camry's, but mine does not fall in the vin # range they extended. It is obviously the same issue. This should be a recall, not extended warranty on all vin #'s from these years. Toyota refuses to do anything about it.

Driver side sun visor has failed. Toyota is aware of the problem but my vin is not included in their warranty extension ztt and has refused to replace it free of charge. This is a safety issue as it will just drop into the fully extended position obstructing my view of the roadway and distracting me as a reach to manipulate it out of my view. *tr

Visibility/Wiper
2011 camry sunvisor became loose and hung down interfering with my view. I tried different methods to hold it up, but they did not work. I removed the sunvisor so it wouldn't block my view, but since at some times during the year i am driving into the direction of the sun, it makes it very hard to see what is in front of the vehicle. Toyota has provided an extended warranty for this defect, but only for certain…

Sun visor unexpectedly sagged down while driving on highway, and now permanently in the dropped down position. Quite a potential safety issue when 1/2 of your visibility suddenly gets blocked, and this issue seems quite commonly reported in online forum complaints.
ODI 10808122
Visibility/Wiper
Sun visor will spontaneously fall down blocking visibility. The locking mechanism that allows the visor to stay in one place is defective and it is unable to hold the visor in the up position. This also creates a hazard getting into the car, as a taller individual inevitably will slam his head on the visor as it is always stuck in the down position. This happens both while stationary and especially while driving.…
