SUN VISOR FAILURE ON 2008 TOYOTA CAMRY SE. DRIVERS SIDE FAILED IN JULY 2010 AND PASSENGER SIDE FAILED IN JULY 2011. *TR

AROUND JULY 17TH OR 18TH, MY DRIVER SIDE VISOR BROKE AND WOULD NOT STAY UP, IT WAS FLIMSY AND I COULD NOT SEE BECAUSE IT WAS PRETTY MUCH HANGING. WHEN I STARTED TO LOOK AROUND IT AND INVESTIGATE WHAT HAPPENED, I COULD FEEL BEHIND IT SOMETHING STICKING OUT. IT SEEMS AS IF THE SOCKET HOLDING IT IN PLACE JUST BROKE AND IN TURN MADE IT NOT STAY UP. I HAD TO TAKE IT DOWN BECAUSE VELCRO WOULD NOT HOLD IT UP AND I JUST COULD NOT SEE WITH IT HANGING. I HAVE NOT PAID TO FIX IT AS IT IS COSTLY AND DO NOT HAVE $200 + TO SPARE FOR A VISOR WHICH SHOULD CLEARLY HAVE NOT BROKEN ESPECIALLY SINCE I AM STILL PAYING FOR THIS CAR. I WANT THIS TO BE FIXED BY TOYOTA. I CALLED A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP TO SEE IF THIS WOULD BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY BUT OF COURSE IT'S NOT AND I'VE ALSO READ BLOGS IN REGARDS TO THIS ISSUE. APPARENTLY DRIVER VISORS ON TOYOTA'S BREAKING IS PRETTY COMMON. *KB

BOTH THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SUN VISORS BECAME INOPERABLE IN A RELATIVELY SHORT PERIOD OF TIME -- FIRST THE PASSENGER SIDE FAILED AT ABOUT 39K MILES AND THEN THE DRIVER SIDE AT 42K MILES. THE MECHANISM INSIDE THE VISOR THAT MAKES IT STAY UP OR KEEP IT IN A FIXED POSITION APPEARS TO BE DEFECTIVE. THIS PART BROKE WHICH CAUSED THE VISORS TO HANG DOWN WITH NO SUPPORT. THE DRIVER SIDE VISOR FAILED ON ME WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY WHICH CREATED A DANGEROUS SITUATION AS IT HUNG LOOSE AND BLOCKED MY VISIBILITY. THE VISOR WOULD NOT STAY UP; I HAD TO HOLD IT UP WITH ONE HAND AS I DROVE WITH THE OTHER UNTIL I COULD FIND A SAFE PLACE TO PULL OVER. *TR

THE PASSENGER SUNVISOR BEGAN TO HANG DOWN SLIGHTLY AND THEN IT DROPPED ALL THE WAY DOWN AND WOULDN'T GO BACK UP AT ALL. WE TRIED EVERYTHING TO FIX IT BUT TO NO AVAIL. THE PASSENGER CAN'T EVEN LOOK FORWARD AT CERTAIN TIMES OF THE DAY DUE TO THE SUN RIGHT IN THEIR EYES. RECENTLY, THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUNVISOR HAS NOW DONE THE SAME THING. IT IS HANGING DOWN IN THE VIEW OF THE DRIVER AND CAUSING SAFETY CONCERNS. WE HAVE TO DRIVE HOLDING IT UP WITH OUR HANDS JUST SO WE CAN SEE OUT OF THE DRIVERS WINDOW TO DRIVE. I RESEARCHED ONLINE TO SEE IF THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM TO OTHER TOYOTA OWNERS AND WAS ASTONISHED AT HOW MANY COMPLAINTS THERE WERE REGARDING THIS PROBLEM. WHEN I SAW HOW MANY OTHER TOYOTA OWNERS WERE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM, I DECIDED TO FILE A COMPLAINT DUE TO SAFETY CONCERNS FOR SO MANY. *TT

THE SUN VISOR ON MY DRIVER'S SIDE FAILED ON ITS OWN. IT IMPAIRED MY VISION BECAUSE IT WOULD DROOP DOWN AND SIT WITHIN MY VIEW. THAT WAS FIXED UNDER WARRANTY. NOW, THE PASSENGER SIDE SUN VISOR DROOPS AND IT IS IN THE WAY OF MY RIGHT VIEW. TOYOTA REFUSES TO FIX THE PROBLEM. AFTER SEARCHING THE INTERNET I FOUND THAT THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH TOYOTA. *KB

SUN VISOR DROPPED DOWN WHILE DRIVING AND WILL NOT STAY BACK UP, CAUSING VISUAL IMPAIRMENT WHILE DRIVING. I HAD TO TAKE OUT THE VISOR IN ORDER TO SEE WHILE DRIVING. *JS

MY DASHBOARD IS MELTING. I HAVE READ ONLINE THAT THIS IS NOT A NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR. IT IS A PROBLEM FOR MANY PEOPLE THAT OWN TOYOTA'S . IT IS BECOMING A HAZARD TO ME. THERE IS A VERY SHINY GLARE ON THE DASHBOARD WHICH MAKES IT VERY HARD FOR ME TO SEE OUT OF THE WINDSHIELD. I WENT TO A DEALER HERE IN FT. MYERS FLORIDA AND WAS TOLD THAT TOYOTA WOULD COVER THE EXPENSE OF $1,600 FOR A NEW DASHBOARD AND THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE LABOR IN THE AMOUNT OF $300. I DO NOT FEEL THAT I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY THE LABOR COST AS IT IS A DEFECT OF TOYOTA. I WOULD LIKE THEM TO REPLACE MY DEFECTED DASHBOARD AT NO COST TO ME. *JS

SUN VISOR BREAKS AT TOP AND FALLS (STILL HANGING) INTO VIEWING AREA OF VEHICLE MAKING IT MUCH HARDER TO SEE AND IS VERY BLINDING WHILE DRIVING. PLUS, ONCE BROKE, THE VISOR WILL NEVER STAY UP AGAIN. *TT

MY WIFE HAS A 2008 TOYOTA CAMRY. IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY AS OF DECEMBER 2010. SHE DIDN'T LET ME KNOW SHE WAS HAVING ISSUES WITH DRIVERS SIDE SUNVISOR DROPPING UNTIL IT WAS TOO LATE. I SEARCHED THE INTERNET LOOKING FOR A REPLACEMENT PART AND FOUND THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM OTHER OWNERS SHARE. THE DEALER WANTS $117 OR MORE FOR THIS PART. MY ISSUE IS TOYOTA KNOWS IT'S A PROBLEM AND BUYING A REPLACEMENT SUNVISOR WILL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAD TO REMOVE THE VISOR BEFORE IT CAUSE HER TO PANIC WHEN IT DROPPED AND HAVE AN ACCIDENT. *TR

DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR KEEP DROPPING DOWN ON MY 2008 CAMRY. *TT

DRIVERS SIDE VISOR WAS SLIPPING AND WOULD NOT STAY UP IN LOCKED POSITION. I COULD NOT SEE OUT OF THE FRONT WINDOW BECAUSE THE VISOR WOULD HANG DOWN INTO MY VIEW. I HAD TO RIGG SOMETHING SO IT WOULD HOLD IT UP. (IE DUCK TAPE). AFTER UNSUCCESSFULLY TRYING TO GET THE VISOR TO STAY IN THE UPRIGHT POSITION, IT BROKE COMPLETELY. *TR

I HAVE 2008 CAMRY AND HAVE HAD A MELTING DASHBOARD FOR FEW YEARS. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THE MELTED SURFACE REFLECTS SUNLIGHT ONTO THE WINDSHIELD MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SEE THROUGH THE GLARE. IN ADDITION THE MELTED DASHBOARD COULD FUSE WITH THE AIRBAG COVER AND CAUSE IT TO MALFUNCTION. I QUESTION WHAT KIND OF CHEMICALS MAY BE RELEASED IN THE AIR AS WELL. *JS

THE SUN VISOR ON THE DRIVERS SIDE OF MY 2008 CAMRY HAS BROKEN AND WILL NOT STAY IN THE UP POSITION. IT CAUSED MAJOR IMPAIRMENT TO MY VISION WHILE DRIVING AND WAS VERY DISTRACTING. IN ORDER TO FIX THE PROBLEM I HAD TO REMOVE THE VISOR COMPLETELY FROM THE BRACKET THE HOLDS IT. NOW I HAVE THE OPPOSITE ISSUE OF NOT HAVING A VISOR, WHICH CAN IN ITS OWN WAY CAN MAKE DRIVING DIFFICULT. THE COST TO FIX THE VISOR AT THE DEALERSHIP WAS QUOTED TO ME AS $185. *TR

BOTH SUN VISORS ON OUR 2008 TOYOTA CAMRY HAVE FAILED. THE DRIVER SUN VISOR FAILED FIRST IN JULY OF 2011. IT BEGAN NOT GOING ALL WAY BACK TO THE TOP. AFTER ABOUT A WEEK IT WOULD NOT STAY UP AT ALL AND BEGAN TO HANG DOWN BLOCKING OUR VIEW AS WE DROVE. AS A TEMPORARY SOLUTION WE BEGAN TO PUSH THE VISOR TO THE SIDE SO THAT WE COULD SEE IN FRONT OF US - HOWEVER IT DID MAKE IT DID OBSCURE OUR SIDE VIEW. WITHIN TWO WEEKS TIME, THE VISOR WAS COMPLETELY OFF THE HINGES AND FALLING OVER/HANGING FROM THE CORNER. NOW, (NOVEMBER 2011) THE PASSENGER SIDE VISOR HAS BEGAN TO FALL AND WILL NOT SAY UP. *TR

THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR HAS BROKEN AND WILL NOT STAY UP IN PLACE. THERE IS NO WAY TO KEEP THIS UP AND IT BECOMES A DRIVING HAZARD. REMOVAL OF THE VISOR THEN LEAVES THE DRIVER BLIND FROM THE LIGHT OF THE SUN IN THE MORNING AND IN THE EVENING. IT IS APPARENT THAT THIS PART FAILS ON A REGULAR BASIS AND THAT TOYOTA HAS CONTINUED TO USE THE SAME MECHANISM IN THE TOYOTA CAMRY SUN VISOR OVER A SEVERAL YEAR SPAN AND SIMPLY USES IT AS A REVENUE SOURCE FROM THE DRIVING PUBLIC. *TR

FRONT BUMPER IS TOO LOW TO ROAD, WHICH CAUSES BUMPER COVER TO COME INTO CONTACT WITH PARKING SPACE TIRE STOPS, WHICH THEN POPS BUMPER COVER LOOSE FROM HOLDING CLIPS, WHICH CAUSES BUMPER COVER TO FLAP, DRAG, OR COME OFF WHEN GOING DOWN ROAD. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE WITHIN 8 MONTHS. *TR

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 87,500. UPDATED 7/23/12 *CN THE CONSUMER STATED SHE HAD TO REPLACE THE DRIVER SIDE VISOR LESS THAN ONE YEAR AFTER THE 1ST REPLACEMENT. ALSO, THE PASSENGER SIDE VISOR HAD TO BE REPLACED. UPDATED 07/30/12

WHILE DRIVING ON A SUNNY DAY, VISOR REPEATEDLY FLOPPED DOWN, CAUSING MOMENTS WHERE THE SUN BLINDED MY VISIBILITY. *TR

WHILE DRIVING (AT VARIOUS SPEEDS) THE SUNVISOR ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE FALLS DOWN BLOCKING VISION VIA THE FRONT WINDSHIELD. AS A SAFETY MEASURE AND TO PREVENT AN ACCIDENT I HAVE TAPED BY SUNVISOR IN THE UP POSITION TO ENSURE IN DOES NOT FALL DOWN. I CALLED TOYOTA AND INQUIRED AS TO WHETHER THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL AND THE SAID NO. MY ONLY COURSE OF ACTION IS TO PAY TO HAVE SUNVISOR CHANGED OUT. *TR

MY DASHBOARD IN MY CAMRY HAS BEEN MELTING FOR SOME TIME. I HAD BEEN TOLD NUMEROUS TIMES THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THAT I COULD DO ABOUT IT. ALTHOUGH NOW IT HAS GOTTEN SO BAD THAT I HAVE AN AWFUL GLARE WHEN I DRIVE DURING THE DAY. THIS GLARE IS CAUSING ME TO AT TIMES STRUGGLE TO SEE. I HAVE HAD TO PULL OVER AND EVEN GO AS FAR AS PLACING A SHIRT ACROSS MY DASHBOARD TO BLOCK THE GLARE. I WORRY THAT THE GLARE MIGHT CAUSE ME TO GET IN AN ACCIDENT AND IF I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT WOULD THE AIRBAGS BE ABLE TO FUNCTION CORRECTLY IF THE DASHBOARD HAS MELTED? *TR

WITHIN THE LAST 10 DAYS, BOTH SUN VISORS HAVE BROKEN AND JUST HANG STRAIGHT DOWN. THIS IS CLEARLY A SAFETY ISSUE/CONCERN. THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE WITH THE QUALITY OF THE INTERNAL MECHANISMS. *KB

THE MECHANICS INSIDE THE VISOR IS BROKEN AND THERE WAS NO WAY TO MOVE IT BACK TO THE POSITION THAT DID NOT BLOCKING MY VIEW. IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS! TOYOTA SHOULD ISSUE ANOTHER RECALL FOR THEIR LOUSY QUALITY!! *TR

THE CAR'S BRAKES DO NOT BRAKE SMOOTHLY AT TIMES. WHEN THE PROBLEM OCCURS AT LOW SPEEDS, THE BRAKES VIBRATE CAUSING UNEVEN BRAKING THE IS FELT IN A STOP AND GO FASHION. AT HIGH SPEEDS, THERE'S INCREASED BRAKE VIBRATION MAKING THE WHOLE CAR SHAKE. *TR

THE DRIVERS' SIDE SUN VISOR BROKE AND FLOPS DOWN IN DRIVERS FACE. AT FIRST IT WOULD STAY IN THE HOLDER BUT EVENTUALLY STARTED TO FLOP DOWN AT ANY MOMENT, FLOPPING, CREATING A SAFETY HAZARD. TOYOTA DEALERSHIP WANTED $200.00 PARTS AND LABOR TO REPAIR. I DON'T HAVE THAT KIND OF MONEY TO FIX A DEFECTIVE PART. FOR SAFETY REASONS, I HAD IT REMOVED. THE INTERNAL MECHANISM IS LOCKED AS THE ONLY WAY IT WOULD FIT IN NOW WOULD BE OPPOSITE THE WAY IT HAS TO BE TO WORK. THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW APPARENTLY, THE TINY PLASTIC PARTS CANNOT WITHSTAND THE FORCE OF THE METAL PARTS WHICH RESULTS IN A FAILURE. THIS IS IN A 2008 CAMRY. *TR

I RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2008 TOYOTA CAMRY LE WITH APPROXIMATELY 40,000 MILES. THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR IS FLOPPY AND DOES NOT STAY UP IN THE "LOCKED" POSITION. WHEN I DRIVE OVER A BUMP, THE VISOR FLOPS DOWN FURTHER. I AM CONSTANTLY HAVING TO PUSH IT UP WHEN IT DANGLES TOO LOW AND OBSTRUCTS MY VISION. FURTHERMORE, IF I GET INTO AN ACCIDENT I COULD SMASH MY FOREHEAD ON THE VISOR. I'VE RESEARCHED FINDING A NEW VISOR ONLINE, ONLY TO FIND NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON THE 2007 AND 2008 MODELS. I BELIEVE A RECALL IS IN ORDER. *TR

WHILE DRIVING THE DRIVERS SIDE VISOR WOULD NOT STAY UP AND WOULD NOT STAY IN THE FOLDED DOWN POSITION. IT WAS HANGING FREELY BLOCKING A CLEAR VIEW WHILE DRIVING. I WAS ABLE TO GET TO MY DESTINATION WITH THE HELP OF MY WIFE HOLDING THE VISOR IN THE UP POSITION. I DISCOVERED THAT MY ONLY OPTIONS FOR FIXING THIS PROBLEM WERE TO SPEND A GOOD SUM OF MONEY TO HAVE THE DEALER REPLACE IT OR TO JUST TAKE IT OFF. I OPTED TO REMOVE THE VISOR.
