sun visor doesn't stay in correct position sun visor doesn't stay in correct position

On a cold winter day I was driving back home and lowered my sun visor and the plastic around the elbow joint broke. This exposed the metal elbow joint holding the sun visor flap. The broken plastic weakens the sun visor from staying closed at all times. Sometimes it would lower a bit or completely. I couldn't believe it... This never happened with my other vehicles. I had to replace it due to being a visibility issue.

Impreza Outback Sport 2.5L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 15,000 miles

The driver's side sun visor does not like to stay in the down position. If I put it down for sun glare I can't put it as far back as ideal, also the visor likes to sink down in front of my eyes over just light bumps.

Has done this from the beginning.

Like many of my other beefs w/Subaru their are a lot of similar complaints out there.

WE CAN'T ALL BE WRONG ABOUT THESE COMPLAINTS SUBARU.
