Wiper problems of the 2007 Honda Civic - part 2

Sun visor falls during driving limiting visibility, especially when getting to an intersection and the traffic light can't be seen. It is a safety an hazardous problem.

Honda Civic 2007 lx sunvisor manufacturer defect where visor won't stay up and impairs driving visibility.

The driver side visor fell on my lap and Honda replaced it because it was still on warranty. . But now the passenger visor is hanging down but Honda wont replace because its out of warranty. The front brakes does wear out around 12k miles after replacing it with the dealer for the 3rd time (Honda dont want to admit that they use poor quality pads so you'll keep coming back to them for replacement, they say its the way you drive but I did point out to them that if I drive like a maniac I would have also need to replace my tires which lasted me more than 50k miles) I decided go get an aftermarket ceramic pads and had it installed from pepboys. Its been more than 30k miles and brakes are still fine. The wiper blade on driver side does become sticky on the windshield which leaves unpleasant streak on my windshield. . Even after getting a new wiper it still have the same problem. . I solve this problem by replacing my driver wiper with a shorter one(original is 26" now I have 24").

Windshield wiper does not park itself in the right position when turning off. While driving, sometimes the windshield wiper will stop in the middle of the windshield thus blocking portions of my view. This occurs on several occasions when the outside temperature is below 40 degrees f and raining/snowing. When the wiper fail to park itself in the correct position, it blocks driver's view and could cause an accident. Issue occurred a few times on highway travel and partially block my view of a lane barrier. Brought to dealership and dealership could not reproduce problem.

When the windshield wipers are turned off, they intermittently do not stop (park) at the correct location at the bottom of the windshield or they continue to run.

At less than 50k miles on my 2007 Honda Civic ex my windshield wipers started acting erratic. They would not respond to the control, as in they would not turn off when turned to the off position, the delay function was not working, and would not turn on sometimes. When this happened there were times when I could not see due to rain, and the wipers not working properly, and also when I could not clean the dirt, salt and other road gunk off the windshield because they would not work. I took the car into the dealership where they charged me hundred of dollars to replace the windshield wiper motor assembly, when this was obviously a defective part to begin with.

The visor cracked open and would not close or stay up, and falls into the vision of driver/passenger, causing visual impairment. The first time happened on the passenger side and was under warranty and replaced on 09/23/2008 at 17534 miles. The second time on the drivers side was replaced on 07/02/2009 on 24484 miles. The third time happened again to the passenger side, and was not replaced, around 35,000 miles. Now it is happening again to the drivers side, at 53,000 miles, again has not been replaced.
