My Lexus RX300 2000 the sun visors keeps falling down which prevents me to drive in which I get distracted when I am driving, it is a concern, since it can cause an accident. My father in law owns also owns a Toyota Camry in which in recent days he got a notification of the same problem. Lexus is the same company as Toyota, and I was wondering if you got any notification of many sunvisor problems along with the model highlander which is the same as my car Lexus RX300. This vehicles where made from 1999-2003.
