3 Interior Rearview Mirror problem of the 2008 Honda Civic

Failure Date: 09/29/2008

Both sun visors on my 2008 Honda Civic ex sedan swing down suddenly and unexpectedly. This abrupt malfunction blocks view of both the road and the rear view mirror, creating an extremely hazardous driving situation. When they swing down, efforts to return them to the ?up? (never have been deployed) position are completely useless. Both swing down again and refuse to remain up and out of the way. The visors are made up of several plastic panels. At least one of the panels in each visor seems to have warped due to normal summer temperatures. It appears that deformation is what prevents the visor from working normally. It is just a matter of time before this causes a serious accident.
