2006 Toyota Highlander visibility problems

Filed Jan 9, 2025 · Visibility · OR

The driver's side sun visor does not stay up against the roof of the car and falls down obstructing the driver's view. It will not stay up and falls down immediately when pushed up against the roof. We have resorted to tying the visor up but then are unable to use the sun visor while driving.

My 2008 highlander only has 130,000 miles, yet the driver's side visor drops and falls unexpectedly while driving, thus causing a driving safety hazardthe vehicle is accident free. I have codes check engine, vsc and trac off. Gas cap was replaced with new official toyota matched part & system checked but problem found - this display light combination is common on toyotas around this time.. My gas mileage & acceleration performance is negatively affected. Inability to properly accelerate creates a danger for inability to avoid collisions.

When is there going to be a recall for the power windows??? There was a recall for 2007 highlanders- in 2012, 2 months before I complained to toyota, they had no complaints !!this is a safety hazard, there are sooo many complaints. I currently have 2 windows that don't work,they were stuck in the down position, both of the motors have been disconnected. The 3rd window works when it wants to. My car currently has @ 88,000 miles. The visors don't stay up, another safety hazard !!! Also way too many complaints.

Drive side visor will not stay in position. When I want it down to block the sun from my eyes, it hangs in the middle and won't stay up against the window, impairing visibility.
