Consumer Description

THE DRIVER SIDE AND PASSENGER SIDE SUN VISORS BOTH DROPPED TO A DOWNWARD POSITION AND WILL NOT HOLD THIER PLACE SO THEY BLOCK VIEW OF ROAD. THE DRIVER SIDE DROPPED WHILE DRIVING WHICH CAUSED MOMENTARY INABILITY TO VIEW THE ROAD. AFTER READING OTHER COMPLIANTS THIS DOESNT APPEAR TO BE ISOLATED AND HYUNDAI SHOULD SOLICIT A RECALL OF THESE VISORS AS THEY IMPAIR THE DRIVERS ABILITY TO SEE THE ROAD. THIS EVENT HAPPENED RANDOMLY WITH NO WARNING AND I WOULD CONSIDER A SAFETY HAZARD.
