Civic LX 1.8L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 43,496 miles

My driver side visor has separated and fell apart. It won't stay up or down, just hangs in your face. This is definitely a defect. Honda should replace it for free.

I only had the car for 3 months when the sun visor began to separated. In the beginning I was able to squeeze the visor back together and then the visor just hung in my line of vision while driving. Now the entire visor fell off. I have been too busy to go get it replaced. What an inconvenience and disappointment in a NEW car. We have also had the brakes replace 3 times in the 2 years we have owned the car...Yicks!!

problem #3

Aug 012008

Civic EX 4

  • Manual transmission
  • 20,000 miles

The passenger side visor separated when you move it to block the sun. At first I could push it together. Now it will not go together and the visor hangs limp, blocking my view. Time off work to have it replaced. Have had other friends with the same problem. Dealer says heat causes problem and we are in Phoenix. I have read many many complaints of this problem from all over.
