1 Windshield problem

The driver side sun visor broke. It doesn't stay all the way up against the roof of the car and/or all the way towards the windshield.

2 Windshield problem

Failure Date: 08/22/2011

After about 1 week of having the driver's side sun visor becoming increasingly weak, and unable to be completely tucked in the forward position (toward windshield), the visor joint completely failed today, resulting in the visor blocking vision from the drivers seat. This resulted in having to hold the visor up, in order to make the drive home from work (~40 minutes). This incident happened today, and no repairs have been attempted yet.

3 Windshield problem

Failure Date: 01/01/2011

Both (driver and passenger side) sun visors are defective via disconnect and/or inability to move from windshield view (occurring only 3 years after purchase of vehicle new). Also, vehicles electrical plug outlets also do not work, and have not worked since after 3 years of vehicle purchased new. Searching online, it appears that both items are extremely common for 2007-2008 Toyota Camry owners, with at least thousands pleading for a recall as the fixes are extremely expensive, for an item that does not typically break with normal wear and tear, and is obviously not derived from wear and tear.

Failure Date: 05/01/2008

On a 2008 Toyota Camry I have a reflection of the dashboard that emits itself onto the inside of the windshield. This occurs at most times and is a visual hazard almost blinds the driver. This has not been corrected.
