Put driver's side sun visor down, something broke, and now visor will not stay up. Tried to fix, but have to manually push it up every minute or so.

Hyundai sonata, 2007. Under normal operating conditions, initially the passenger-side sunvisor started sagging, partially obstructing my (I.e. Driver's) view. 2 weeks later the driver-side sunvisor also started sagging, thus seriously obstructing my view and hitting me in the head. I've contacted the dealership and consumer affairs and am awaiting a response.
Sun visor on the driver side of my 2007 hyundai sonata does not stay in place. It was working fine, and then all of a sudden one day it was down and I could not put it back in place.
While traveling at night on the ohio turnpike at posted speed limit, the drivers side sun visor suddenly dropped down from its normal stowed position against the headliner directly into my line of vision. This caused a brief loss of vision of the road ahead and a momentary loss of vehicle control. Sun visor would no longer stay in stowed position and had to be forcibly removed in order to safely continue my trip.
I have a 2007 hyundai sonata with a problem with the sun visor. In three years I have had to replace the drivers side twice and the passenger side once. When it fails the visor drops down and you can't see past it. I have checked the internet only to find this is a common and dangerous situation.
The sun visors in the 2007 hyundai sonatas are getting to hot and melting. I have tried to pull down both visors and the both have cracked and broke. I am a fairly tall person and now when I push the visors back up they continue to fall back down in front of my face. I think this is a factory issue that needs to be fixed at their expense.
2007 hyundai sonata sun visor on driver's side will not stay in place. A plastic piece broke and there is no tension in the visor resulting in the visor being completely vertical and always it the line of sight. I have to hold it in place with my hand while driving resulting in only one hand on the wheel and is highly dangerous. I've read that this is a very common problem with hyundai's and feel that the manufacturer should fix these safety problems.
On 4/17/09 at about 2pm, I was traveling in a 2007 hyundai sonata southbound at 70mph on I-75 in florida between sr64 and sr70. Smooth traffic flow, no road hazards, bumps, potholes or debris. Weather 80 degrees, overcast. I had my AC on, windows closed and sunroof/sunshade closed when "boom" I heard an explosion above my head followed by the sound of wind. Startled, I immediately pulled over, got out and saw that my sunroof had literally exploded upward, with the shattered rim edges intact. Thank god I had my sunshade closed or I might have had glass fly into my eyes, blinding me and causing a catastrophic accident. I drove home and put a tarp on it because it was overcast and I was afraid of rain damage. I have used the sunroof on almost every day without incident, grinding noise, leak or concerns of any kind. I sincerely believe that this sunroof explosion was caused by a structural or mechanical defect from the manufacturer that could have lead to a serious, possibly fatal, accident. I am taking photographs and will be taking the vehicle to a hyundai dealership for evaluation.
Driver side sunvisor mounting has become so loose that it allows the visor to continually drop down in front of my face, obscuring my view of the roadway, thereby presenting a real danger to the safe operation of the vehicle. The odds of an accident caused by the premature wear/failure of the visor retention mechanism is very real. In my opinion, this constitutes a safety defect.
