Consumer Description

THE DRIVER SIDE VISOR MECHANISM HAS BROKEN AND THE VISOR HANGS DOWN, IMPAIRING THE DRIVER'S VISION. THE VISOR IS RARELY USED AND HAS VERY LITTLE WEAR. IT SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN DAMAGED BY SUCH LITTLE USE. SEEMS TO BE A FAULTY PART. THERE HAS NEVER BEEN ANYTHING HUNG FROM THE VISOR THAT COULD CAUSE ADDITIONAL WEIGHT TO THE VISOR MECHANISM. *TR
