“2007 Toyota Camry Hybrid drivers side sun visor will not stay up. It flops down into the drivers line of vision, which leaves the driver feeling like he/she is driving a tank. Last evening I nearly hit a motorcyclist because the flopping visor limited my vision. We have tried to fix it, stick it up into place, etc. All to no avail. I understand this is a common problem with camrys.”

“We have a 2007 Toyota Camry Hybrid. For no reason the drivers side sun visor flops down causing a visibility hazard. Dealer claims this is rare, internet shows otherwise. Repair costs $140 for replacement. I feel poor manufacturer design as there is nothing broken. I also feel it should be recalled. This is my 19th vehicle and I have never had a sun visor issue. Thanks for your time.”

“Hello, I have a 2007 Toyota Camry Hybrid. The drivers side sun visor will flop down unexpectedly causing a visibility issue. The dealer wants $120 to replace. Toyota says it is not common and no recall is needed. I have read numerous complaints on various forums and think a safety issue is present.”

“My dashboard has become very shiny and sticky. Toyota has declined to fix it. It makes it hard to see the road and I almost ran into a parked car due to reduced visibility.”

NHTSA complaint #11109729, filed 2018-07, 147,000 miles

“The dashboard of my 2007 Toyota Camry Hybrid is melting!! The melting is creating a glare on the windshield making it very hard to see at times. A simple internet search will yield you 100's of results of the same complaint for this make/model. Toyota is aware of the issue as they have changed the material used on the dash. My inquiries to Toyota corp and the dealership where I bought my vehicle are not being taken seriously and I really fear that the visibility issues can result in death or accidents. …”
