 Description of the problemI have a 2013 nissan pathfinder and the sun visors have an issue where they do not stay up. This is a common issue with this vehicle as if you google it, there are multiple threads describing the issue. This is a huge safety issue as the sun visor on the driver's side blocks your visibility. Additionally, it makes a loud cracking sound anytime you open or close it. I contacted nissan last year in 2016 and they basically said, "oh well. You are out of warranty." the issue with my vehicle is a known issue and is also a safety concern. I can be driving my vehicle on the highway and the sun visor will suddenly fall down and block my view. When i contacted nissan last year, my vehicle was not even a year out of warranty. I had noticed the issue with the sun visors for a while, but did not take the vehicle in previously due to personal issues going on (i was in the middle of a separation and divorce). The driver's side sun visor is hanging so low now that i have to push to the left side of my vehicle in front of the window so i can see when i drive. I have included some pictures so you can see where the sun visor is sitting on a permanent basis. Even if i push it up, it falls back to this position. You can see from the final picture that is basically at my eye level. I can understand nissan not wanting to replace both sun visors, but the driver's side visor is a huge safety concern. At $250 a piece, i can't really afford to spend $500 to have them both repaired. I have 2 small children and i'm extremely concerned for their safety and mine while operating the vehicle.
