I have a 2018 CRV and noticed the sun visors after a couple of years is not longer able to close up all the way to be flush with the cabin ceiling. I already had both replaced under warranty but now it is happening again. Does anyone else have this issue? I wonder how to get this fixed once and for all since I am now out of warranty.

Hi
My 2019 Australian model now 2 yrs old is on it s third driver s side (Right hand) visor replaced under warranty.. My problem is the visor drops from the full forward position after a few bumps on the road. Each visor has done the same from the beginning. I' ve given up and accept the shortcoming now.
Anyone else manage a "fix"?

Look at post 35

Think I would try Velcro before drilling holes

Thanks Fishy! I never would have thought of that. My 98 Accord actually had a plastic piece that slid out from inside the visor and that was what I was looking for.

I'm curious, do you use the visors often? My 2018 has had no issues. I wonder if there is a bad batch of visors out there that were manufactured improperly.

Yes, we do. I live in So. California is it's pretty sunny. It seems to be getting worse every day now. I forgot to mention it is actually stiff so it is hard to move up and down as well. It does slide out sideways without problems so I suspect the mechanism in the visor itself is what is bad.

I have the exact same problem. Same vehicle. I took the plastic clamshell apart & found the pocket that the torsion spring fits in ha had sheared & was not supporting the spring. I bought a C-clip, used to fix Accord/Civic visors, that backs up the pocket. But I can't get the visor to rotate, with or without the clip. Suggestions? What did you finally do? Can't figure how to make it rotate.

I added some silicon grease. It only made it a little smoother but still will not close all the way. I suspect something broke inside like you verified. Looks like it will be temporary till the whole thing starts falling down and blocks your vision. Unfortunately, I don't have a fix yet. I may be having to replace the whole thing but it would suck to have to do it every 2 years.

Yeah I checked my 2019 CRV EX-L and the visors do not slide either, only the Accord does this.

Funny, just checked mine and they do slide about 8".

If the OP has a base model it may not have the sliding visors. It's amazing what they will cut out to save a buck or two on base models.

As a simple solution is about a thin piece of metal shaped like so

the only problem is when you want to put down to the Sun. at least it will no longer fall you can see the person who made it on line

I know some have said the binder clip method looks ugly but it has worked well for at least 5 years on the Civic. It may or may not work in your situation but thought I would provide some insight. I was frustrated the visor would droop down. Got a replacement visor from Honda using the warranty back then and then the visor failed again. So I did this binder clip method and it has lasted.

Jesus what was the point of that

I am experiencing same thing with my driver side visor in my 2018 car-v. I was told that the spring is broken and that’s why it won’t snap up anymore. It’s driving me crazy. I’m trying to find out if there’s a way to replace the spring instead of replacing the entire visor, which has fine. Can anybody point me to the part I would need to replace the spring?
