1 Visibility problem

Failure Date: 06/20/2014

The contact owns a 2007 Hyundai Elantra. The contact stated that the sun visor piece that connected the driver and passenger side visors to the roof of the vehicle fractured. As a result, the visors could not be used. The dealer diagnosed that the piece was fractured and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The VIN was unavailable. The failure mileage was 100,000.

2 Visibility problem

Failure Date: 10/31/2012

While parked in my driveway, my wife tried to lower and move sideways the passenger side sun visor, made a loud "crack" noise and it broke off the hinge, leaving the electrical wires exposed and that's the only thing keeping it up. I'm afraid it will cause a short circuit if wires break and touch the metal edge. Now the visor will not stay up and she's hit the side of her face twice while getting into the car.

3 Visibility problem

Failure Date: 10/25/2012

The contact owns a 2007 Hyundai Elantra. The contact stated that both the driver and passenger side sun visors became fractured. The manufacturer was notified, who stated that there was no recall for the failure and offered no other assistance. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 60,000.

4 Visibility problem

Failure Date: 03/07/2012

Both sun visors have failed on our 2007 Hyundai Elantra. When the driver's visor fell off while driving down the road, it nearly caused an accident because it was hanging in front of my face, and I couldn't see where I was going. I have since removed the visors altogether, and now have problems driving in the morning or late afternoon due to the sun shining in my face.

5 Visibility problem

Failure Date: 08/17/2011

Driver side visor spontaneously detached front its mount, dangling directly in the drivers' line of vision and causing the potential for an accident.

6 Visibility problem

Failure Date: 10/25/2010

Both the driver's side and the passenger's side sun visors fell completely off while I was driving (this happened three weeks apart). Because there is a vanity light in each visor, the wires broke when the visors fell. The bare wires touched and shorted out my electrical system. It's not under warranty anymore, but it seems as though this must be some kind of manufacturing defect since it happened to both visors!.

7 Visibility problem

Failure Date: 02/01/2010

Sun visors no longer stay flush to roof and drop unexpectedly into line of vision. Visors on both driver's and passenger's side are affected. Cannot easily remove visor since connected by wire for light. Visors replaced out of warranty.
