Q: Sun visor is becoming a hazard
The sun visor in my 2006 Honda Civic is barely functional at this point. It was sort of loose one day and since then has gotten worse. Now there is no point in putting the visor in front of you, as it’ll just move back and forth while the car is moving. It also jiggles like it's going to fall off. When a part this simple breaks, it really makes me worry about the rest of the car! This problem first occurred when the car was at like ~90,000 miles. How can I fix this annoying problem once and for all?
