THE SUN VISOR (PASSENGER SIDE) ON MY 2007 HONDA CIVIC SI SPLIT OPEN IN THE HOT SUN WHILE SITTING IN THE DRIVEWAY. IT IS NOT REPAIRABLE AND WILL NOT STAY IN THE UPRIGHT POSITION. *TR

THE DRIVER SIDE INTERIOR SUN VISOR CAME APART AND CAME DOWN INTO THE DRIVER'S LINE OF SIGHT FOR NO APPARENT REASON. FURTHER INSPECTION INDICATED THAT IT HAD SPLIT AT THE SEAM NEAR THE LEFT SIDE WITH INTERNAL DAMAGE TO THE VISOR RENDERING IT BEYOND REPAIR. *TR

THE VISOR IS CRACKED AND WILL NOT STAY UP. *TR

DRIVER'S SIDE VISOR JUST FELL APART. IT WAS NOT ACTING ANY DIFFERENT AND THEN I WENT TO POSITION IT BACK TO ITS RESTING POSITION BEFORE PULLING OUT OF WORK AND IT FAILED. HOUSING HAS SEPARATED WHICH KEPT THE INTERIOR WORKINGS IN PLACE. NOW THE VISOR HAS SLIPPED OUT FROM AROUND THE MECHANISM AND I DO NOT HAVE THE ABILITY TO POSITION IT TO ASSIST ME IN DRIVING SAFELY. *TR

DRIVERS SIDE VISOR SPLIT OPEN FALLING INTO FACE OF DRIVER. *TR

BOTH SUNVISORS CRACKED FROM THE NORMAL SOUTHEASTERN HEAT AFTER I HAD HAD THE CAR ABOUT TWO YEARS. *TR

BOTH SUN VISORS ON 07 HONDA CIVIC EX SPLIT, VISORS WILL NO LONGER STAY IN THE UP POSITION. VISORS CAUSE A DISTRACTION AND IS A SAFETY ISSUE. YOU CAN GET THEM REPLACED AT HONDA DEALERSHIP BUT THEY GIVE YOU THE SAME VISORS THAT THEY KNOW ARE DEFECTIVE AND WILL NOT LAST. VISORS ARE VERY CHEAPLY MADE. *TT

SUN VISOR HAS SPLIT INTO AND I HAVE NO CLUE WHY AND MY THIRD GEAR IS ALWAYS HARD TO GET INTO AND THE RUBBER SEALS ON THE DRIVER DOOR ALWAYS COMES OFF IN THE HEAT OF THE SUMMER. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA CIVIC HYBRID. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE WINDOW WOULD NOT CLOSE PROPERLY. THE WINDOW WOULD DERAIL AND BOUNCE BACK DOWN WHILE ATTEMPTING TO CLOSE.

THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 42,000. UPDATED 06/01/11*LJ UPDATED 1/24/2012 *LN *TR

THE DRIVER'S SIDE VISOR CRACKED NEAR WHERE IT IS ATTACHED AND WILL NO LONGER STAY UP, SO IT FALLS DOWN INTO MY LINE OF SIGHT. *TR

I LEFT MY DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR DOWN AND WITH THE HEAT IT SPLIT APART. THE VISOR NOW HANGS DOWN IN THE LINE OF VISION WHILE DRIVING AND I WILL HAVE TO HAVE IT REPLACED. *TT

THE VISOR ON MY HONDA CIVIC 2007 HAS CRACKED AND HANGS DOWN IN MY FACE CAUSING VISIBILITY OF THE ROAD TO BE GREATLY DIMINISHED. DUE TO THE CRACKED VISOR YOU ARE UNABLE TO GET THE VISOR TO GO BACK UP AND STAY UP SO EVERYTIME I DRIVE MY CAR I CAN BARELY SEE THE ROAD. IF I WRECK MY CAR DUE TO THIS ERROR IN THE MAKE OF HONDA CIVICS I WILL SUE HONDA FOR NOT HAVING A RECALL ON SOMETHING THAT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS FOR MYSELF AND ALL OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD. *TR

CPSC# I1160082A 2007 HONDA CIVIC EX COUPE DRIVER'S SIDE SUNVISOR BROKE OFF. *LN

THE SUN VISOR IN MY 2007 TWO DOOR HONDA HAS BROKEN AND WILL NOT STAY IN PLACE. IT GETS IN THE WAY OF MY VISION AND DISTRACTS ME WHEN TRYING TO DRIVE. THE DESIGN FLAW OF THE VISORS IN THIS CAR IS MAJOR. IT WILL NOT STAY UP AND FALLS DOWN IN FRONT OF MY FACE. A FEW TIMES IT HAS CAUSED SUCH A DISTRACTION I ALMOST RAN OFF THE ROAD TRYING TO KEEP IT OUT OF MY FACE. THIS OCCURS EVERY DAY AND I HAVE TO MOVE IT TO THE SIDE WHICH BOTHERS ME. NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO CORRECT THIS FAILURE. I AM NOT PAYING $100 FOR A REPLACEMENT WHICH WILL ONLY END UP FAILING ANYWAYS. HONDA NEEDS TO OWN UP AND MAKE A RECALL SO THAT THIS DESIGN FLAW DOES NOT CAUSE CRASHES OR ANY DEATHS DUE TO THE MAJOR DISTRACTION IT CREATES TO THE DRIVERS. *TR

2007 HONDA CIVIC EX 4 DOOR (120,000 MILES), DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR SPLIT OPEN AT THE SEAM AND NOW HANGS DOWN AND BLOCKS FORWARD AND SIDE LINE OF SIGHT. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE. CALLED AMERICAN HONDA AND THEY WILL NOT REPLACE OR WARRANTY THE DEFECTIVE PART. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING THE SUN VISOR BROKE, WHICH MADE IT DIFFICULT TO SEE DURING THE DAY AND IN INCLEMENT WEATHER. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THE WARRANTY EXPIRED AND THE FAILURE SHOULD BE DIAGNOSED BY THE DEALER. THE CONTACT HAD NOT TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 26,000.

DEFECTIVE SUNVISORS- FALL INTO LINE OF SIGHT. BROKE AT APPROX 40,000 MILES. FIRST THE DRIVER SIDE AND ABOUT A WEEK LATER THE PASSENGER SIDE. NO LONGER ABLE TO KEEP THEM OUT OF THE WAY. *TR

I OWN A 2007 HONDA CIVIC SI WHICH HAS FAULTY SUN VISORS. THE VISORS APPEAR TO BE MADE OF TWO SEPARATE PIECES WHICH SEPARATE APART IN THE HEAT. DUE TO THIS SEPARATION, THEY DO NOT "GRIP" THE LITTLE ARM WHICH IS CONNECTED TO THE CEILING; THEREFORE, THE VISORS CANNOT BE PUSHED UP TO THE CEILING. NO-MATTER-WHAT THE VISORS DROPS DOWN AND RETURNS TO THE POSITION IT WOULD BE TO BE USED (FOR EXAMPLE, IF THE SUN IS IN YOUR EYES).. HOWEVER IT IS A DISTRACTION AND A COMPLETE NUISANCE TO ANY DRIVER. I AM PETITE AND IT OBSTRUCTS MY VIEW; HOWEVER, IF ANYONE ELSE WHO IS TALLER THAN ME ATTEMPTS TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE THEY CANNOT SEE STRAIGHT IN FRONT OF THEM BECAUSE THE VISOR WILL NOT STAY IN PLACE AGAINST THE CEILING.. OBVIOUSLY THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD. MOREOVER, THE PASSENGER VISOR SEPARATED LAST WEEK AND HAS THE SAME FAULTY ISSUE AS THE DRIVER'S SIDE. *TR

SUN VISORS SPLIT IN HALF. ONCE THE VISORS ARE SPLIT, THEY WILL NOT HOLD A "TUCKED UP" POSITION, BUT RATHER WILL HANG DOWN AND OBSTRUCT THE DRIVER'S VISION. THE PROBLEM IS CHRONIC AND THERE IS NOW A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT THAT HAS FORCED THE VEHICLE MANUFACTURER TO EXTEND THE WARRANTY ON THE SUN VISORS. HOWEVER, THE BROKEN VISORS ARE BEING REPLACED BY ANOTHER VISOR WITH THE SAME DESIGN DEFECT. AFTER A BRIEF PERIOD OF USE, THE NEW SUN VISOR ALSO FAILS. THE VEHICLE MANUFACTURER NEEDS TO CREATE A NEW DESIGN WITHOUT THE FLAW AND REPLACE THE OLD DESIGN WITH THE NEW DESIGN AT THE MANUFACTURER'S EXPENSE. *TR
