Driver side sun visor has broken and can’t be stowed. Visor now hangs down and blocks at least 50% of the drivers view to the front. Visor can be moved to the left, up against the side window, but then it blocks the view to the left. This is a known issue. It is a safety defect and a recall should be issued.

The sunvisors ( both sides) mechanism that holds them in position will break from standard normal use. When this happens the sunvisors will not stay in the position that the operator puts the sunvisors in and tend to be floppy. This makes a dangerous situation because the sunvisors may fall down when not intended or not stay in position to needed to block sun glare. The sunvisors may also hang lower in the stowed position creating and edge a person could hit their head on on and abruptl stop. This happens while the car is stopped or in motion, but becomes worse in rough road conditions. The cause is due to the internal plastic that holds the spring clip on the inside on the visor. There are many complaints in online forums and even youtube videos showing diy fixes. Oem replacement part is anout $150. Pictures attached show both sunvisors. Drivers side is operating normal, and the passenger side visor is shown in the positions that it can stop at. Notice inthe stowed position passenger visor hangs low. And in the down position it will not stay all the way out. They will eventually degrade until they just hang down loosely and not maintain any position.
