While driving our 2009 Toyota Camry se model that my wife drives 95% of the time, I was being annoyed by the driver side visor droping down and obstructing my view, it would not stay fully up, in asking my wife about this she responded it has been that way for a while but is getting worse, and she mentioned the passenger side is very difficult to pull into the down position and then back up, stopped using it because she did not want to break it. I ordered thru the dealer the driver side visor and weeks after I am told it is in back order and not available at this time. I wonder if Toyota is using there available stock for those consumers that take it in for dealer repair/replacement at a cost to the consumer, as I have read in some of the complaints. What am I to do ? any suggestions ? help !!!! I dont want to wait for a accident to happen.
Driver's side sun visor broke and is blocking visibility and unsafe in a crash as it will impact my forehead.
The driver-side sun visor on my 2009 Toyota Camry recently broke. Like many others have already reported, the visor will not stay up and makes visibility while driving very difficult. In order to drive, I had to physically remove the visor to see, but now I have no visor to help shield the sun, which also makes visibility difficult. I have seen this issue reported online by many different individuals ranging from 2007-2009 Camry models. My car is only 3 years old and this should not happen. I hope Toyota can acknowledge this flaw and provide a fix.
I have a 2009 Camry and the driver's side sun visor has failed. It hangs there, only will stay in 2 or 3 specific positions and when it is "up" it droops down in my line of sight causing a serious hazard in driving (which I do a lot of for work every day). This is a serious issue and Toyota has refused to cover the repair even though this is a common issue and caused by their faulty equipment and cost saving measures. This needs to be addressed for all affected owners ASAP.

Driver's side sun visor snapped and is no longer attached to the arm rotating arm. Visor is hanging loose only by material and causes a visibility issue. It will no longer remain in a stored position.
I was driving my car and went to put sun visor down and it just broke no warning or anything. I did not even pull hard. Just normal use and it obstructed my view. As it was just dangling in my face would not stay up towards the window. When I called the dealer they said there has been some others having same issue but, there hasn't been anyone that has gotten hurt or they have not made alot out of it. They want me to spend 110. 00 just for part which is faulty part.
The sun visor in 2009 Toyota Camry hangs in face while driving. Came off bracket and causes major obstruction of vision. Had to completely remove the visor to prevent wreck.
Driver side sunvisor broken.
2009 Toyota Camry. The driver side sun visor dropped to the down position blocking site visibility ( this occurred while the vehicle was being driven and was in motion on a public highway) and it will not stay in the retracted (against the roof) position. It continues to obstruct vision when in the forward position and blocks peripheral vision when swung up against the driver's side window. When the dealer was contacted their representative stated that it is a common and ongoing problem that has not been addressed by Toyota. Searches on the internet reveal that this is a problem that has persisted for a number of years. It is highly likely that this problem will lead to vehicular damaged and/or personal injury if it has not already.

When I was driving at night, I started to feel a lot of heat in my right hand, the heat came from the radio and the a/c controls stop working and the radio too, the radio turn blank but keep playing the a/c controls keep turning on and off by them selves. Since then my radio goes blank, on and off and the dealer wont do nothing about it, I have check with different Camry's owners and I have found out that they have the same problem. I also have problems with my brakes???? when I step on the brakes my steering wheel starts shaking like if the rotors were bad, I took the car to my mechanic only to find out that a idle arm is bad ,and he as well as other Camry's owners tell me that there are a lot problems with those arms. My car is stock, I haven't done any modifications. The other problem that I have is that I took the car for new tires and I saw rust inside all my rims, I live in California so there no snow or I do not live to close to the beach, and I do not know what to do, I told the dealer and they say nothing they can do. My visors keep falling off and they come of their base.
