The contact owns a 2011 Toyota Camry. While driving at 55 mph, the driver side sun visor detached from the interior roof of the vehicle, obstructing the contacts view. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was confirmed that the driver side sun visor had fractured and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 43,000. Visibility/wiper · reported at 43,000 miles
Sun visors have just fallen downward and will not stay up. The drivers side completely fell off while I was driving. Huge safety issue. Toyota extended their warranty on some '07-'11 Camry's, but mine does not fall in the vin # range they extended. It is obviously the same issue. This should be a recall, not extended warranty on all vin #'s from these years. Toyota refuses to do anything about it. Visibility/wiper · reported at 70,000 miles
