Sunvisors: the sun visors on this car fell apart without any damage to them. either the visor completely fell out or the visor will not stay up causing an obstruction/distraction while driving. there has been a recall on the 2008 models; however, there are problems with this year as well. *tr
The driver's side sun visor dropped down, blocking me vision (i'm 6'1). it seems to be broken, for no apparent reason and won't go back inplace. *tr
Driver's window moves up and down. i put window up, and it comes down by itself. minor issue is clearcoat paint peeling off of bumper. *tr

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
Driver's sun visor split apart at the top seam, with the inner spring sticking out so it won't go back into place without (for now) using both hands to squeeze everything back in and try to reposition, otherwise it just hangs down and blocks view. cannot safely lower the visor to use, so driving looking into the sun etc becomes hazardous. searched online to see if this was a design problem, and after reading posts from a few hundred different owners with the same problem (many have had the visors replaced multiple times), i gave up reading the other posts.. *tt
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

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
I own a 2007 honda civic lx which i purchased from dealer new. recently my driver side sun visor "ruptured" open, and no longer stays in the secure position. it drops down in front of me while driving and obstructs my vision. i am tall, so this is a safety visibility issue for me. apparently honda issued a recall for this issue, and also settled on a class action lawsuit and acknowledged a defect in the visor. however, the recall only extends up to 100,000 miles and i have more than that, so the dealer says honda will not cover it and i will have to pay out of pocket. that is very wrong, particularly when honda has acknowledged defective part, and it is clearly a safety issue. *tr
