Driver side sun visor has broken and can-??t be stowed. Visor now hangs down and blocks at least 50% of the drivers view to the front. Visor can be moved to the left, up against the side window, but then it blocks the view to the left. This is a known issue. It is a safety defect and a recall should be issued.

The sun visors makes a loud cracking noise and have continued to fall down in my light of sight starting since the vehicle was roughly a year old. They will not stay up and have almost cause me to get into a severe accident several times. The drives side visor had to be removed as it hit me while I was driving and caused me to swerve off the road.

Sun visors on 2014 Nissan Pathfinder need to be recalled, definitely a safety hazard. Both driver and passenger side visors will not stay up, obstructing visibility. Have noted many other complaints. Come on Nissan; we have driven your automobiles for 25 yrs now. Do we have to have a serious accident before something is done?

Sun visor on the driver's side is broke. Had the car 2 years. Barely ever pulled it down, only when there was a lot of sun in my eyes and I couldn't see. Found out on line there have been numerous complaints about this on 2014 models. People keep having problems with them breaking, unexpectedly. There is no recall.

The visor does not stand flush with the roof, it drops down into the driver's line of sight. They will often fall completely down, making it a safety issue for the driver.

The sunvisors ( both sides) mechanism that holds them in position will break from standard normal use. When this happens the sunvisors will not stay in the position that the operator puts the sunvisors in and tend to be floppy. This makes a dangerous situation because the sunvisors may fall down when not intended or not stay in position to needed to block sun glare. The sunvisors may also hang lower in the stowed position creating and edge a person could hit their head on on and abruptl stop. This happens while the car is stopped or in motion, but becomes worse in rough road conditions. The cause is due to the internal plastic that holds the spring clip on the inside on the visor. There are many complaints in online forums and even youtube videos showing diy fixes. Oem replacement part is anout $150. Pictures attached show both sunvisors. Drivers side is operating normal, and the passenger side visor is shown in the positions that it can stop at. Notice inthe stowed position passenger visor hangs low. And in the down position it will not stay all the way out. They will eventually degrade until they just hang down loosely and not maintain any position.

The driver's side sun visor has an inner plastic piece broken which makes the sun visor randomly fall, blocking my view when driving. This is a common issue on many 2014 Pathfinders that can be fixed by making the parts (visor) better, or by selling a replacement part for the plastic piece that easily breaks. Instead, the manufacturer only sells as a replacement part, the exact same visor that is likely to break again. A second issue on this car is the driver's side door handle inside and outside the door. I find myself often trapped inside the car or outside the car due to this door handle malfunction. This could easily become a life/death safety issue if ever I was in an accident and was trapped inside the car. This is another common defect on this car caused by a cheap plastic piece breaking. Another problem besides being trapped in the car is that sometimes the door opens while driving. These safety issues common in the 2014 Nissan Pathfinder should be corrected immediately with a safety recall.

Passenger side sun visor will not stay up creating a blind spot/visibility hazard. Driver side is beginning to stay down lower from the roof of the car also. Passenger side now stays down all the time and when pushed up immediately falls back down

- Greeneville, TN, USA

The sun visor on the driver's side is defective, leading to impaired visibility during driving. The visor sometimes falls to a vertical position under gravity only. This obstructs forward vision and also obstructs line of sight to the rearview mirror. At other times, the visor partially sags, creating a condition where the front edge of the visor is in close proximity to the driver's face. It's foreseeable that a condition could occur where the visor could cause injury by contact with the driver's face during sudden deceleration. There are no positions that the visor can be put in that do not obstruct the driver's vision.

We were driving out of town on vacation when our sunroof exploded out of no where. It was about 9:30 in the morning on Friday July 19th. We were heading East bound on the 10 freeway it was about 90 degrees outside with no other cars around. The noise was so loud it scared everyone in the car. We have contacted Nissan for help and they have been extremely rude and unwilling to help us at all. They basically said to bad it's your problem not ours.

The sun visors on our 2014 Nissan Pathfinder started to droop down and eventually became so loose that they did not stay up at all and are dangling all the way down. This is not only annoying but also a safety hazard because the driver side is blocking part of the view. The loose flapping panel also distracts the driver immensely.

The sun visor will drop down and will not stay up causing a safety hazard while driving.

- Fredericksburg, VA, USA

Takata recall- both the driver side and passenger side sun visors are defective and after making a clicking sound for some time when being pulled down to use in sunny conditions, the visors finally break and hang down blocking the drivers view of the road and the visors can not be put back up in place. When doing a web search, I see this is a widespread problem. It's a safety hazard to not have a functioning sun visor but also to have it blocking the drivers view of the windshield and road

Driving down the road and my sunroof exploded. It sounded like a gunshot went through the sunroof. Glass fell down onto my wife and 2 kids in the back seat. There were no rocks in front of me for debris to come back. The whole thing shattered. It didn't have a crack or spider. I have read numerous other issues like this on the internet and consumer reports recently wrote an article about this. Nissan was in the top 3 having this issue. I went to my dealer and he thought we were crazy and assumed we caused this damage and tried to explain their were related articles online with the same issues as my experience. It was very scary and could've been dangerous if there were other vehicles behind us because, we had to slam on our brakes. I also purchased extended warranty and they would not cover it.

After owning my 2014 Nissan Pathfinder platinum for a little over 2 years and 37000 miles (conveniently just out of the factory warranty period), the sun visor on the driver's side became inoperable and, what I considered to be, a safety hazzard. The inside portion of the visor itself was obviously poorly engineered and loosened/cracked inside the visor which holds it secure to the visor arm. The visor would not remain in the upright position, out of the field of vision while driving. It was caught in a state of limbo in between being all the way down, and being all the way up. As a temporary fix, I had it secured with velcro, but this would come loose sometimes while driving and obstruct my vision. Within a month of the driver's side visor breaking, the passenger side visor broke as well, in the same exact spot. I secured both visors in the upright position with bungee cords as the velcro wasn't secure. My local Nissan dealership informed me that even though this was a known safety issue, I was out of warranty and would have to pay for the repairs myself, almost $400 total. I contacted Nissan's corporate office to see if they could resolve this for me since it has been a common complaint among Pathfinder owners, but I was given the same answer. My concern, that Nissan doesn't share, is having a vehicle with no operable sun visors. What if I got into an accident with my family in the car because I was blinded by the sun? Nissan, however, does not think this is a legitimate safety issue for all of their customers regarding this known quality defect. I guess they have calculated that a wrongful death settlement or two is less expensive than doing the right thing and replacing a couple thousand (or possibly a couple hundred thousand) visors.

Both drivers and passengers side sun-visors will not stay up against the ceiling, or against the windshield, and drop down into my line of sight, which makes it a hazard while driving because it will not stay in place. Myself and passengers are constantly hitting our heads on them. It obstructs my view while driving even when my seat is all the way down. Nissan you have been made aware of this defective part and this should be recalled. It makes driving hazardous.

Sun visors in the car fall down unexpectedly. This causes the reduced field of vision to forward or side traffic and also poses at great risk during collision. These defective sun visors need to be recalled. The problems have been on going across multiple vehicles in the product line within the first 6 months of use. Multiple incidents have been reported.
