Description of the problem | While driving my car, i re-positioned the driver side sun visor so that it would cover the drivere side window. During the re-position, the visor detached itself from the car. The visor would not go back into the socket, so i had no other choice but clip the right side of the visor into it's socket and allow the left side of the visor to hang. I had to hunch down for the remainder of my commute in order to have full visibility while driving. Once parked, i was able to work with the visor for several minutes to get it back into the socket. The visor cannot be pivoted to the left driver side, it falls every time. The visor can only remain parked or unfolded without detaching itself from the car. I face the sun during my commute to and from work, so not having full access to my visor is troublesome for my vision. I took my car in for an oil change and the dealer said, "it seems fine to me." the problem still exists. I am reluctant to pivot the visor to take a photo because it takes so long to get it back into the socket. |
