Product type code | VEHICLE |
Description of the problem | 2009 toyota camry driver side visor broken internally and hangs down in front of driver until pulled off, a possible visibility problem and hazard. Toyota issued a visor recall, but replacement visor (tried 2) will not stay fully up when tilted to the windshield, thereby making signal lights harder to see, which we believe could cause an accident as well. Hard to believe new visor will not go up fully (in both directions, but towards the ceiling does not block view, just does not snap up like original units). |
