| 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. | |||

| 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. | |||

| I have a 2008 toyota camry and the driver's side sun visor broke and was hanging in my line of vision while driving. it would not stay up at all. it is a serious safety hazard. then, a few weeks later the passenger's side sun visor broke as well. i have read several reports about this issue and toyota has yet to send out a recall. the visors are $80 each & the service person at the toyota dealership told me they break due to heat and his dealership is making a lot of money off of them because of the extreme heat in the south. i purchased a driver's side replacement visor, but have not replaced the passenger side one because this issue needs to be addressed by toyota and because they are so expensive. | |||

| My mother owns a 2008 toyota camry ce and the passenger visor flops down and it does not stay up in place. it happened when more than a year ago when the car merely had 30,000. i did my research online and found this is a common issue with toyota's. i called the dealer and they told me that its something i need to pay to get fixed. if it is something that is happening to many toyotas and is dangerous because it obstruct the driver view, toyota should be forced to recall and fixed the issue asap!! it is not right that we have to pay to fix something that is defective from the manufacturer. | |||

| In my 2008 toyota camry, both sun visors suddenly broke within a few days of each other and now hang straight down. it blocks the drivers vision, and the only way to drive is with one hand holding up the drivers side visor. this is obviously not very safe and of course one can only hold their arm above their head for so long - so no long trips in this car. the toyota dealer said the car is out of warranty (i bought it new 40 months ago) and charges $130 each to replace them (they can't be repaired). i even have their extended warranty, but the extended warranty company said the visors are excluded, because of the huge number of complaints about them. a quick internet search reveals that a lot of other people have had the same problem. | |||

| Both sun visors of my 2008 toyota camry broke off about 10 months ago through no fault of my own. the visors first began to hang limply, so i could not properly adjust them to keep out the sun. while trying to adjust them they simply fell off. the drivers side broke first and within 2 months the passenger side also broke. when the first broke i thought it was just some aberration, but after the second i realized there is something in the manufacture of the visors that is faulty. both occured outsiode of the warrantly window. it is now dangerous to drive in early morning and late evening, becuase of the lack of the visors. i will continue to follow up with toyota for reimbursement, but i felt it was necessary to notify nhtsa to see if others have had similar problems. thank you. | |||

| Both sun visors of my 2008 toyota camry broke off about 10 months ago through no fault of my own. the visors first began to hang limply, so i could not properly adjust them to keep out the sun. while trying to adjust them they simply fell off. the drivers side broke first and within 2 months the passenger side also broke. when the first broke i thought it was just some aberration, but after the second i realized there is something in the manufacture of the visors that is faulty. both occured outsiode of the warrantly window. it is now dangerous to drive in early morning and late evening, becuase of the lack of the visors. i will continue to follow up with toyota for reimbursement, but i felt it was necessary to notify nhtsa to see if others have had similar problems. thank you. | |||

| My visor on the drivers side will not stay in the up position or down against towards the windshield blocking the sun. it seems to be defective. i called toyota to see how much it cost to replace the part. i was advised $148.00 for the part. however the previous owner had also had this visor replaced prior to me purchasing the vehicle. this seems to be a big deal with alot of the toyota visors, but yet there is no recall on this item. i would like to have this issue fixed and not at my expense as this is a safety concern. if you put the visor in the up position against the top of the car, it will continue to fall down in front of my view. if you push it forward towards the window it again will come back towards me. if i were to get into an accident, it is right at my head level and could cause severe injury. *tr | |||

| Last year my passenger side visor went down with no apparent reason. i didn't think about it much, i thought it was a passenger pulled it down too hard, and i replaced it with a used visor from ebay. last week, my driver side visor broke and went down, so now i have no visor which creates a safety issue. i started looking online about this issue, and i see a lot of people complaining about this. this is definitely a design/manufacturing flaw from toyota, but i see no recall. i went to the local toyota dealership yesterday to see what they can do. they almost fixed the issue with no cost, but they said they couldn't order a new one until toyota issues the recall. now i have to wait months before they send me a letter. *tr | |||

| Sun visor broke with only 35500 miles on the car. driving east to work and west home is seriously dangerous without this visor, which was used under normal conditions (flipped down in the morning, up when parked and flipped down again in the evening). it's dangerous enough driving through 2 construction zones in the morning, but now i have to use one hand to shield my eyes due to the grades i drive and location of sun in the sky. this impedes my driving. i found the broken visor hanging useless after work on day and couldn't tape or rig it up so had to pull it off in order to see out the windshield! what would have happened if this broke during rush hour in construction? please do something about this problem. seems like a simple quality issue that should be fixed or recalled due to potentially dangerous driving situation. plus it's a $32,000 car and quality should be better than that of a $12,000 car. ## vin passed ## toyota camry hybrid 2008 ## *tr | |||

| Sunvisor has lost all tension and just hangs straight down interfering with visibility on driver's side. toyota will not assume responsibility when i called and discussed it with them at their customer service center although i have read this is a fairly common problem with camry 2008. had to remove sunvisor. *tr | |||

| The sun visor for the driver and passenger became loose at no fault to the consumers and it won't stay up. when my car was in warranty the dealer fix the problem but it broke again. this is extremely dangerous as it blocks my view because the sun visor keeps propping back down. when i ask the dealer to fix it again, they wanted 120 dollars to fix each sun visor! reading other people complaints, it seems all the model of camry from 2007- 2011 have the same problems...yet no fix from toyota. toyota quality= declining. it seems like toyota and the dealership is making money off of defects and refusal to commit to quality control to sun visor. reminds me and others of the unintentional acceleration that toyota refused to acknowledges that led to deaths and injury until the c.e.o of toyota got questioned by congress. only then, toyota acknowledges the problem. in that case the acceleration would become stuck causing the car to accelerates. last car i would buy from toyota until the problem is fixed free of charges to all customers. honda, hyundai, ford, gm anyone? | |||
