Toyota sun visor recall

The driver side sun visor in Toyota vehicles from 2007 to 2011 is a huge safety issue and needs to be recalled and replaced by Toyota. The failure of the visor to work properly obstructs a persons view while driving and impedes their driving capabilities. There are millions of Toyota drivers with this issue and that fact that this issue has yet to be resolved or handled appropriately by Toyota is inexcusable and will deter me from purchasing another Toyota vehicle ever again the future. My value and respect for Toyota and their lack of due diligence in regards to this issue has severely impacted my perception and will not buy another Toyota vehicle if they can’t stand behind their product or protect the safety of those of us who purchased their product and are suffering the consequences.

My 2007 Toyota Camry with less than 70,000 miles has a broken sun visor on the driver's side. Local dealership won't repair it unless I pay $250.

Dale Borgen

I had replaced the sun visor on the drivers side 2 years ago now the passenger side sun visor dropped down and will not stay up.

Both visors have now flopped down. Called Toyota my car 2009 camry and they say it's not part of the recall. Really well maybe it needs to be.

I have 2009 toyota venza and just today I found out that my driver side sunvisor not working and hang loose from the clips on where it should stays. Next thing I know that it does not turn or flips on side so now I have to replace with new one

Carla Oliver

Gloria D Curls

My driver's and passengers sun visors won't stay up they fall blocking my vision. Which makes it dangerous to operate my car safely on the street and highway. I need help with this issue. I just recently reached my 20,089 miles of usuage. I obviously love my car. I need Toyota to issue a recall on these sun visors and replace them for free as loyal Toyoto consumers. We campaign for you and recruit new buyers to try your products. Please don't ignore us and show the future buyers that Toyota manufacturer care and help their past and future customer s. Thanks for taking time out of your busy day to read this email. I hope to hear from your company soon. Respectfully, Gloria Curls

2009 Venza with 51,000 miles; drivers side visor failed 6 years after purchase date

Amy Marin

Driver side visor just failed. 2009 Venza.

Elroy Henry

I have a 2009 Toyota Venza it has 60,000 miles. I bought in new in 2009 and the driver's side visor broke with warning. Yes, Toyota should do a recall on the 2009 Venza's visor.

Emily New

2010 Toyota Camry, visor won't stay up.

Peter Babalola

THE 2010 TOYOTA CAMRY DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR BROKE AND IT JUST WON'T STAY IN POSITION. A VISIT TO LOCAL DEALERSHIP POINT BLANK MAINTAINED IT IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL BUT I THINK IT WAS JUST AVOIDING TOYOTA'S RESPONSIBILITY. I BOUGHT A 2000 CAMRY BRAND NEW 15 YEARS AGO AND THE VISOR IS STILL OPERATIONAL

Shelly Jordan

I have a 2011 Venza and the driver side visor also failed. It has also lost the cloth part on the very top where the seam is. I have bumper to bumper extended warranty and they said they will not cover at the dealership. I am totally disappointed in Toyota!!

Marisa Catricala

Passenger side broke about 2 months ago and drivers side is on its way! I 2008 Camry well taken care of!!!

benjamin cayabyab

Driver side visor won't stay put. Metal holding visor came off and the plastic that holds the metal is torn. 2012 Venza.

D McClung

Very pampered Toyota 2009 Camry Hybrid had driver side sun visor break yesterday. It now won't stay in the up position and wind stay in the forward position high enough to stay out of my sight line. Clear safety hazard Dealer is too busy to fix

Vonna Hlavka

2012 Venza driver's side visor broke during the first 100 miles of ownership. Toyota replaced. I now have 47,000 miles...both the driver's side and the passenger side visors are broken. Plus, the light goes on and won't go off. I have an extended warranty. I am getting ready to contact Toyota. If they won't fix, I will not buy another Toyota.

rosa

I have the problem on both visors. First i had one visor mess up on the right side and about 6 months later the left one went out!!!

2009 Venza hasn't worked right from the beginning. Should have taken it back but didn't. Now it just hangs loose in the down position. I need to use a clamp to stay up somewhat so I can see.

Anonymous

We purchased a New 2012 Toyota Venza. The driver side visor would make a loud click when it was put back up, Now 1 month later it is hanging and will stay up. Why wont they address this issue ?

Anonymous

I have replaced the passenger visor once and the driver visor twice on my 2009 Venza. The driver visor just broke AGAIN!!! It cost me about $150 every time to replace so I refuse to pay again. Right now a large rubber band is holding it up so I can see while driving. Of course, it is not covered by warranty. Toyota needs to fix this problem.

Own a 2010 Toyota camry with about 31000 miles. Visor started falling in my face couple of weeks ago, and totally fell off few days ago

Michelle Klein

I have a 2008 Camry who's visor broke, its very distracting and can be a driving hazard.

Steven Lang

This is a safety issue. Toyota should handle something like this.

Terry

Toyota Venza driver side visor falling in my face, this is a safety issue, that Toyota needs to fix.

Gabriel Emanuelli

I have a Venza with same problems

Said Haschemi

Same with my Venza driver side. Need this fixed. Almost got 2 accidents. No more Toyota purchases. I should have never left Honda.

Suliman Haschemi

My father's venza is very bad, The visor almost got us in two accidents. I need this to be resolved. Toyota wants 200 to fix this. That is insane.

jennifer abejar

I have droopy sun visor. Everything works (I.e. Mirror, light, slide shade extension) except the clip portion and visor won't fold. My car is highlander hybrid 2008.

Regena Dorbert

2013 Toyota Venza with the same problem!

Mel Delacruz

2013 Highlander with the same issue. Very dangerous and very expensive to fix.

Larry

I own a 2011 Camry. This visor on the driver side got loose then fell off. Half a year later the passenger side's just fell off.

The driver side visor broke with in the first year of purchasing the 2008 Camry. Now the passenger visor broke and the extended warranty expired last year and they will not cover it.

Jill Spilker

Drivers visor broke.

Loc VO

My 2011 toyota venza sun visor broke, and I know my in law has the same problem with his 2010 toyota camry. It seems like this is problem that Toyota has not overcomed with their design yet. DEFECT PART.

Nick Boyd

2009 Highlander drivers side visor wont stay up.

We have an '09 venza with certified and warranty. Only put 25,000 miles in 3 years and the driver side visor took a dump. I've also had to take it in several times for engine problems that were covered, but this is Toyota and it's supposed to last forever with no problems. My Civic has 215k miles and i haven't even flushed the radiator! Come on Toyota, pony up.

Susan Rouse

2010 vena drivers side visor kept dropping lower and lower. Dealer said won't fix. Dangerous to drive with it hanging so husband had to take off. Now I am blinded by the sunlight! Even with sunglasses! Come on Toyota!

2008 Highlander Ltd, broken driver side sun visor

The replacement visor is also broken

Steve in Illinois

2011 RAV4 drivers side visor will not stay in up position. I talked with the dealer warranty lady last week and she said Toyo is aware of the problem on the Rav and may at some point issue some sort of extended repair service like they have on the Camry and Highlander. She said to call her each week and she will check for me if it has been issued. Hoping it happens soon as my wife is not happy having to deal with this. We've driven Toyotas for 30+ yrs now and it's the first time something of this nature has happened in any of the 9 vehicles we've had

Wallace Miller

driver's side visor suddenly developed severe droop on my '09 Venza

Joseph gonzalez

Same issue . Car is toyata pre owned.and just recently the visor failed me

George Laurel

This should definitely be covered by Toyota in the firm of a recall. Almost caused me to have an accident.

frances a watters

toytoa says they had a recall on the sun visors but it expired in 2008 I brought the car way after that

Christine Lopez

My 2012 Venza driver visor will not go up. I took it to Toyota and they told only Camry and RAV4 are under warranty. I paid for the extended and no help. They tried calling Toyota headquarters in central time but of course they are closed.

margaret brown

same thing 2011 camry, visor just falls down, I have 50,000 miles

Jonathan Limayo

2011 Toyota Venza. Passenger side was first to go. Now the driver side.

Eunice

My 2013 Toyota Venza visor is broken and the passenger visor is making a popping sound too I'm pretty sure it will break soon.

Anonymous

Driver's side visor is broken and will not stay up obstructing my line of vision for driving. This is a hazard and if they have recalled the same visor on on car they should cover whatever car that has that visor.

Victor Miller

2013 67000 miles. This repair should be under warranty.

jan wierzgala

I have a 2009 Toyota Venza it has 70,000 miles. My visor needs replacement, it can't be fixed. I spoke with the dealer they told me it will cost $130 to order new one, without the labor. I have no problem with my Honda's, and they are older with more miles.

Kenneth Edmond

2009 Venza with broken sun visor

Heather Nystrom

2009 Toyota Venza with a broken driver side sun visor. Just started sagging one day then went to use and it totally just broke.

Israel Garza

It's a dangerous problem to be blinded while driving

melvin w richter

2009 camry- passenger side visor will not stay up. Car serviced at Toyota dealer from purchase. Dealer never brought situation upon regular maintenance or inspection. this visor should be replaced as a goodwill gesture and safety on part of Toyota. What does the Federal Government say about this issue?

Frommelt

Sun visor broke and I can not see while driving. this should be a recall and fixed by Toyota.

Arlene Parrilla

Toyota Venza 2009 third sun visor replacement at almost $100.00 each. This is not fair.

John Cifra

2010 Toyota Venza defective, poorly designed, and poorly made sun visor is a safety hazard. It falls down in line of vision while driving obstructing the driver's view of the road. This will be our 3rd sun visor, completely unacceptable.

Sharon Cifra

My Venza only has 54,000 miles on it (2010) sun visor on drivers side is dangerous. Come down while driving, blocking vision of the road ahead. I have replaced 2 of these, not fair, Toyota should stand behind their products better, the reason I bought a Toyota was because of the reputation of a quality vehicle.

Heather Frid

2013 venza sun visor on the drivers side has been replaced 2x now in less than a year and I just had to replace the passenger side. 130 a piece at one dealership and 113 our local dealership seems like a lot for something that doesn't even last a year. its also a safety issue once it breaks cause you can't keep it up

Cathy DuBois

My 2010 Venza sun visor keeps falling down. very dangerous!

Kimberly Ryder

My 2007 Toyota Camry visor broke as well. Along with the dash needing replaced... Who has the extra time for recall repairs? Not me!

My driver side visor keeps coming falling down, now it is offically broke. I almost wrecked. Now i have no visor and cannot see when I am driving. This is crazy. I know (3) other people that have 2007 Camry's and all (3) of them are having problems with the driver side visor. We actually laughed about it.

2012 Venza. Driver's side sun visor falls and won't stay up, difficult to see. Dealer will sell replacement for $109. Should replace for free. It's dangerous to drive without.
