NHTSA Complaint #10395802 — 2006 HONDA CIVIC

MY 2006 HONDA CIVIC DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR IS BROKEN AND DEFECTIVE. HONDA HAS ISSUED A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN BUT NO RECALL. THE DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR CAN NOT BE ADJUSTED AND HANGS DOWN IN THE WAY OR VIEW AND I CAN NOT SEE THE ROAD TO DRIVE SAFELY. HONDA HAS REFUSED TO FIX THIS UNDER GOODWILL ASSISTANCE AND MY CARS WARRANTY HAS JUST EXPIRED. MANY OTHER CONSUMERS HAVE THIS SAME ISSUE AND HONDA IS NOT ADDRESSING IT. DAILY USE TO BLOCK THE SUN IN YOUR EYES WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING IS THE EVENTS LEADING TO THE FAILURE. THE CONSEQUENCES IS THAT I CAN NOT SEE TO DRIVE SAFELY. EITHER SUN IN MY EYES OR SUN VISOR BLOCKING VIEW OF ROAD. THE VISOR CAN NOT BE ADJUSTED, IT IS BROKEN, IT JUST HANGS DOWN IN THE LINE OF SIGHT. TO DATE MY LOCAL HONDA DEALER IN EL PASO TX HAS REFUSED TO REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE PART THUS I AM WORKING WITH AMERICAN HONDA FOR THEIR SUPPORT TO REPLACE THIS DEFECTIVE PART FREE OF CHARGE. *TR
