NHTSA Complaint #10661655 — 2014 NISSAN ROGUE

THIS PROBLEM HAS HAPPENED BEFORE HOWEVER THIS TIME IT CAUSED A DICEY SITUATION. WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY THE FRONT WINDSHIELD SUN VISOR SUDDENLY DROPPED FROM THE FORWARD UP POSITION (AGAINST THE FRONT WINDSHIELD WHERE IT WAS BLOCKING THE SUN) DOWN TO A VERTICAL POSITION WHERE IT SEVERELY BLOCKED THE FRONT VISIBILITY. IT WILL NOT RELIABLY STAY IN THE UP OR SUN BLOCKING POSITION; IT WILL STAY IN THE STORED OR BACK POSITION VERY SECURELY. THE TECHNICIAN AT HANLEES NISSAN SAID THE SITUATION WAS "NORMAL" AND THERE WAS NO AUTHORIZED MODIFICATION. I CONSIDER THIS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE OF THE UNEXPECTED LOSS OF SIGHT OF THE ROAD. *JS
