Consumer Description

THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR WILL NOT STAY UP. IT IS VERY DISTRACTING. I HAVE TRIED GETTING IT TO STAY THERE WITH VELCRO, HOWEVER THE VISOR IS TOO HEAVY AND IT WILL NOT HOLD IT UP. I CALLED TOYOTA WHO STATED THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO TO HELP ME WITH THIS. IT WOULD COST ME OVER $100 TO GET THIS FIXED. THEY DO NOT SEE IT AS A SAFETY ISSUE, HOWEVER IT IS VERY DISTRACTING. I HAVE READ SEVERAL POSTS ON THE INTERNET OF OTHER TOYOTA OWNERS WHO HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE VISOR. *TR
