The driver's side visor has split and just hangs down in the line of vision....I purchased a new genuine honda visor and the same thing is happening to it. Now the passenger side visor is also beginning to split. Honda will not stand behind their defective visors. It is not overused or abused in any way. My vehicle is always well maintanined.

The sun visor for the car has been replaced every year since purchasing the vehicle, as it melts off in the summer heat. The visor will hang and block visibility for the driver causing hazardous conditions. After 7 replacements, the visor has since been removed. I am unable to drive during sunrise or sunset. I will likely have to get rid of this vehicle for this reason, as I cannot safely drive it for a large portion of the day.

Tl* the contact owns a 2011 honda civic. While driving 20 MPH over a pothole, the air bags deployed and the windshield fractured. There were no injuries. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer or independent mechanic for diagnostic testing or repairs. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 194,000.

The sun visor falls and is split and does not stay in place. This reduces my ability to block the sun when I am driving.

Windshield wipers dont always work. I will push on the handle and the wipers will not move. This is also a huge safety hazard, if its raning hard and I cant see while driving. Sometimes there is a huge delay from pushing handle and wiper blades actually moving. Sometimes, the wipers will not move at all. Very dissatified with this honda. Will never buy another honda again.

Tl* the contact owns a 2011 honda civic. The contact stated that the passenger side sun visor independently detached when placed in the down position. The failure recurred three times. The vehicle was taken to an unknown local dealer, but was not diagnosed or repaired. Six months later, the driver's side sun visor detached when placed in the down position. The contact stated that the driver side sun visor was replaced once and the passenger side sun visor was replaced twice at his expense; however, the replacements did not correct the failure. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 25,000.

Went to honda dealer this week. Asked if there were any recalls since having problems with visors. Honda service rep said none. Found your website mentioning recall with air bags that didn't know about, also complaints (not recall) with visors. Both sun visors have separated at seams, same problem as my 2006 civic. Unfortunately by the time I heard about recall I had traded my car in. But it's the same problem, the visor will not stay up and this is a safety hazard. The honda service rep said no recalls. Honda dealer wants me to pay $63 plus tax for a new driver visor (forget replacing passenger visor). It should be recalled since it's the same problem as the past civic models. Now need to pursue them on air bag recall since I wasn't aware of this and he said there were no recalls when at honda dealer this week.

Drivers side sun visor hanging down it won't stay up

Filed Oct 1, 2015 · Visibility · 46,000 miles · TX

Driver and passenger side visors are mechanically defective. Flipping them from up to down uses an internal component which snaps, keeping the visor in place to stay out up out of visibility or down to block the sun. After 15k miles or so, snap component pushes out through the visor assembly, preventing ability to use during driving -- and ultimately off the bracket holding the visor to the ceiling. Car has 46k miles on it -- both visors have now been replaced 3 times
