Description of the problem | My sun visors on my suv that i purchased new will not stay up. They hang down in a very awkward position and pose a major visibility issue. I drive over 50 miles daily for work and steering my car while trying to hold up my passenger visor has and is posing a major visibility issue. I read countless post blog with other pathfinder owner who have the exact same is. I am taking my suv to nissan to see if this is covered under warranty. My main concern is once my warranty haa expired as numerous of pathfinder owners have, this will be an expense that i will have to absorb when i shouldn't because it is a clear manufacturer defect. I am being told the cause of my ossue is that nissan made thw visors too heavy for the brackets that support them causing them to fall and impair visibility which is not only dangerous but could be deadly. I am a mother of two and want to make sure the vehicle i purchased new bc of safety is in fact safe for myself and my family. |
