Consumer Description

2007 HONDA CIVIC. DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR HAS CRACKED. WON'T STAY CLOSED (RETRACTED AGAINST THE CEILING). FALLS DOWN IN FRONT OF VIEW FREQUENTLY. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE CARS SINCE 2006 WHEN THE SUN VISOR DESIGN WAS MODIFIED TO ITS CURRENT DESIGN. SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A SEVERE SAFETY ISSUE. SOLUTIONS INCLUDE: 1) REMOVING THE SUN VISOR; NOT SAFE. 2) IGNORING THE PROBLEM; WHEN SUN VISOR FALLS DOWN IN FRONT OF EYES IT'S NOT SAFE. 3) REPLACING THE SUN VISOR; HONDA REFUSES TO PROVIDE A FREE REPLACEMENT EVEN THOUGH THERE IS GOOD DOCUMENTATION ON THE NATURE OF THE PROBLEM AND DURATION OF THE PROBLEM.
