I own a 2005 Nissan Murano and have had numerous "incidents" regarding a continuling problem with the driver's side sun visor. The mechanism that holds the visor upright and in an angle position to block the sun is not working and repeatedly drops and droops rather unexpectedly to the point of hindering my ability of driving safely. Numerous times while driving on the highway the visor drops and blocks my view several times this has nearly caused an accident. I have talked to the Nissan dealer and they say it is not a safety issue, there is no recall infomation and I must replace on my own expense regardless if I have a warranty. I have contacted the dealer I purchased the vehicle from and have not had any solutions other than to pay over $500 to fix the problem. I find this outrageous and danderous. An online search yeilds a large number of other Murano owners with the same problem.

I own a 2005 Nissan Murano and both sun visors keep falling. I've tried velcro and even glue but to no avail. These faulty visors are dangerous because they tend to fall when I am driving and momentarily obstruct my view. I've come close on a few occasions to hitting a vehicle in front of me becuase of this. The cost to replace these visors is exorbitant ($350 or more ea) and while researching where to buy them cheap or even a method of repair for this defect I've found that there are multiple Nissan owners with this exact same problem.
Driver side visor of vehicle falls down on it's own. Blocks driver's vision. Occurs at least once a day. Some times more frequently depending upon the road. If the roadway is bumpy, the visor will fall more frequently. This happened all of a sudden, without any events leading up to the failure. When I checked online, it turns out this is a fairly common problem with this vehicle. In some instances the dealer will repair. In other instances they will not. Cost of the repair is around $400. 00. I plan to go to the dealer tomorrow and hope they will repair.
Driver's side visor on 2005 Murano has lost its ability to stay in the up position reliably, causing it to drop into the driver's line of sight frequently and with no notice, causing a total obscurities of the road.

Sun visor in 2005 Nissan Murano with 55k miles doesn't stay up all of a sudden. This started happening for no apparent reason. It's loose when in the up position, and if the car hits a bump, it falls in front of the driver. It is difficult to drive with it down all the time, and quite dangerous when it's up and all of a sudden falls when driving. It costs $375 for a replacement visor. Both the local Nissan dealer and the corporation refused to assist with the cost of the part, and this is a problem that, according to internet research (and the local dealer's own admission), numerous other people have encountered. This issue poses a serious safety hazard, yet is cost-prohibitive to have fixed.

Driver's side sun visor falling down while driving. Won't fall all the way down-just enough to be in line of vision. Talked to Nissan about replacement parts-not covered by warranty and b/w $350-$425 to replace(not including labor!) something needs to be done about this-high risk for accident-trying to use velcro at this time to keep in place-not really working!! just hit 60,000miles on it!.
2005 Nissan Murano drivers side sun visor will not stay up. Visor falls unexpectedly causing the driver to be momentarily blinded. This is a safety issue and Nissan needs to offer replacement spring clips to keep the visor out of the drivers vision.
Driver side sun visor will not stay up regardless of the position it is in and continues to fall down blocking the driver's view. It falls down unexpected while driving suddenly blocking the driver's view of oncoming traffic, traffic signals, etc. I (and many other owner based on blogs and reviews) have contacted Nissan several times, filed a complaint and requested a recall, to no avail. This is clearly a safety issue that should have been addressed in earlier vehicles. Undoubtedly there have been accidents and near misses due to this obstruction to the driver's view of the road and traffic flows. A recall needs to be called to get this matter addressed especially since the manufacturer is well aware of the hazard it creates and that the component failure has been in existence since at least 2003. File # 6909366 was been created to document my concern by ginger knight, consumer affairs representative, Nissan consumer affairs. If a recall has already been issued, please advise of the information so I can get this fixed. If not, please consider this and the numerous other complaints regarding this key component failure.

Normal vehicle use, about 45k miles. The drivers side sun visor fails to remain in the up position.
