I OWN A 2006 HONDA CIVIC, AND I'M SURE YOU ALREADY KNOW WHAT I'M ABOUT TO COMPLAIN ABOUT... THE VISORS! THEY ARE NO GOOD! IN THE 5 YRS I'VE HAD THIS CAR, I'VE HAD TO REPLACE THEM ABOUT 4 TIMES ALREADY. LUCKILY 2 TIMES I DIDN'T PAY ANYTHING SINCE THEY WERE UNDER WARRANTY. UNFORTUNATELY NOW I OWN THE CAR, AND IT'S BECOMING REALLY ANNOYING. THE DESIGN ON THESE VISORS IS RIDICULOUS! WHEN IT'S HOT OUTSIDE, I HAVE TO REMEMBER NOT TO USE THEM OR ELSE ONCE I PULL THEM DOWN IT CRACKS OPEN AT THE HINGE AND BREAKS. THIS IS QUITE COSTLY ESPECIALLY SINCE THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM WITH THIS DESIGN. IT'S NOT ONLY EXPENSIVE FOR THE VEHICLE OWNERS, BUT ALSO A HAZARD TO DRIVERS. WHEN THE VISOR BREAKS AND CAN'T BE PULLED BACK UP, IT BLOCKS THE DRIVER'S VISION. YOU CAN'T SEE THE SIGNAL LIGHTS UNLESS YOU HOLD THE VISOR UP WITH ONE HAND WHILE YOU DRIVE. THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLED A LONG TIME AGO. I MENTION IT TO THE DEALER EVERY TIME, BUT THEY DON'T TAKE THE INITIATIVE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THEY'RE PROBABLY HAPPY SINCE IS BRINGS IN A CONSTANT REVENUE FOR THEM FROM ALL THE CIVIC OWNERS THAT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM EVERY YEAR. PLEASE HELP! *TR
