Problems with 2008 Toyota Camry VISIBILITY

Tl* the contact owns a 2008 toyota camry. while driving various speeds, the sun visor fell down and obstructed the contact's view of the windshield. additionally, the sun visor failed to secure in place. there were no warning indicators illuminated. the dealer was not contacted. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was contacted and referred the contact to nhtsa. the failure mileage was 200,000.

On the freeway, i pulled my sun visor down and it "flopped" down and couldn't be put in either the up or down position. in the situation i was in, i had to steer with one hand while holding the visor up out of the way so i could see. i sensed this was not a safe thing to do so i just pulled the visor off completely. i'd had a little difficulty with it not staying in position before but this was much worse. i asked toyota to fix it, but instead they offered me a $750 discount on my next purchase!!! i told them that one had nothing to do with the other. i also asked them to check on line with ipetitions that had 527 signatures with the same issue. *tr

The driver's side sun visor dropped down, completely blocking my vision and no longer stays in place making it a permanent safety hazard to the point where the car in no longer drivable. checking the internet, i found out that this is a widespread problem. however, the dealer tells me that there is no safety recall for this problem. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2008 toyota camry. the contact stated while driving approximately 5 mph, the visor fell obstructing the driver's vision as another vehicle crashed into the front driver side of the vehicle. the air bags failed to deploy. the driver sustained back and leg injuries. the front passenger sustained neck and back injuries. both, the driver and passenger required medical attention. a police report was filed. the vehicle was destroyed. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was 88,000. ...updated 12-03-14 *bf

Driving on the freeway, i pulled my sun visor down and it flopped in front of me. i had no choice but to pull it off as it wouldn't stay in position, up or down. i wrote to toyota and they refused to have it repaired, but they offered me a $750 discount on my next toyota purchase! under the circumstances, i could easily have been in an accident and consider the incident a serious safety hazard. i researched the problem and found there are many such incidents. in fact one site showed hundreds of complaints for the very same thing. *tr

The drivers side visor will not stay up. very dangerous. my husband is taller and it affects his range ov vision and plus it is annoying. looked online and see that there have been problems with the visors. i am taking it to a dealer to see if its covered under my warranty, if not, i will contact toyota directly to correct this very dangerous situation. *tr

After 95,000 miles of usage the sun visor has decided to come apart and i'm no longer able to use it to block the sun or store it in a safe manner. every passing day it seems the visor gets lower and lower until i can no longer see the road correctly. i almost have to drive holding the sun visor up. it doesn't feel safe but i don't yet have the funds to replace it. and even if i did replace it, it's only a matter of time before it happens again from what i've been reading. *jb

Re: recall power window master switch this vehicle is showing recall item not taken care of. long ago i called the manufacturer and they conference called the dealership repair shop. the shop keeps saying they already addressed this recall, but the manufacturer says it has not been resolved. the shop says i came in on a self pay basis and they already did my safety recall but the records show it was never done. to address this issue, they should just complete the service, or re do it if that's the case, (if it was already done) i have no idea if its safe to drive. if i tried to sell the vehicle or trade it in ect...its showing this service recall was never taken care of... *tr

The passenger visor no longer stays in the proper position, it flops. this happened with my drivers side about a year ago. must be made bad is all i can figure. *tr

Our family owns a 2004 toyota tundra which we love so that made us buy a camry in 2008 big mistake! ever since i bought this car new in 08' had nothing but mechanical issues and as of date 6 recalls and counting. a month after i purchased the veh they replaced my axle, brakes and then that's when the recalls starting coming in. from my visors falling to now the window recalls. my front dashboard is nasty sticky no matter how i clean it it's gross the sticky won't go away and the arms rests on the driver door and passenger sides are both rotten from the inside their cracked and broken. i don't use arm rests so they shouldn't be! the top ceiling cloth in my car fell down the 4th month i had my vehicle so my father spray glued it (how sad is that!). this was my first car i purchased brand new so going thru this after complaints at the dealership they still didn't do anything. i'm so upset i have no words left to say about this vehicle i'm driving a crap car that's falling apart from the day ...

My sun visors on both sides have messed up and now have both been replaced. my cd player also started messing up earlier this year. it says there's a cd in, but there's not. you can't load a cd or eject it. the service center at the toyota dealership told me they don't see anything jammed in there and that i would be better off replacing it with an aftermarket stereo system b/c it would be cheaper and they would have to send my car off to have it fixed. hopefully, i'm not the only one experiencing this problem and a recall will be issued! *tr

The sun visor on the passenger side will no longer stay in place. it now dangles and blocks the view of the driver. *tr

Driver side sun visor will not stay up because i think the clips broke, i understand that this has happened on many other toyota camry cars. *tr
