Prius (2010-12) :: Both Driver And Passenger Sun Visor Wobbles On Road
Aug 5, 2016
I noticed that my sun visor when placed on the side where the window is wobbles like crazy on the road. I asked the dealer about it and they said I would have to purchase a new one even though the car is under factory extended warranty.. they said they don't warranty parts used by the customer.. I then told them I never moved the passenger side and when I moved it over to the window it was wobbly too, so it came that way from the factory. They said they will look into it but prob wont get a call back. Its bad when going down the freeway and you hit some small dips in the road.

2014 RX 350 F Sport Passenger side sun visor light not working properly. Have ordered visor 4 times in as many months from dealer and still no visor. Parts department says there are none to be had on their computer.

My driver side sun visor has gotten incredibly creaky for some reason even though I don't use it very often. I don't know what's inside so I'm unsure on the lubricant to use.

I've owned a 2012 Prius Two for less than a month now, and today while driving home I noticed what sounds like road/wind noise coming from the rear passenger side area. Googling about this revealed information about the battery fan. However, I'm unsure if what I'm hearing is the battery fan or road/wind noise that I just haven't heard before.
Here's information regarding the conditions I was driving in:
- 84 degrees outside temperature
- car had been sitting in an open-air parking lot for about 2 hours
- no tint, no windows cracked for hot air release
- upon returning to the car I turned on the AC to 68, set at mid range speed
- was driving on the interstate doing some stop-and-go, but mostly 50-plus MPH
- windows rolled up completely, no doors ajar
- it sounded like air rushing by
- could not hear anything coming from the left rear side, but my left ear is partially blocked by the headrest, so...
- sound would decrease in volume if car slowed down
- sound would increase in volume as car got faster, but would eventually level out it seemed
- sound would completely go away at speeds below 20ish mph
- sound would not change based on level of AC, whether on, low, high or off
- checked battery vent for obstructions/debris, saw nothing, and was cool to the touch
- car has about 28k miles on it, replaced rear tires yesterday but all bolts, caps, etc. are securely in place

I took them off and can not install them back in since I put some sound insulator on the proof. I also lost 1 metal clip somewhere on the ceiling, where can buy new one, and what is the part number for it?
When I push the sun visor, only the clip stay on the ceiling, the sun visor will fall down. It drives me crazy whole day How the white plastic part (electric connect to sun visor) suppose to be attach to the ceiling.

This past weekend, the driver side passenger window does not go up or down. I tested my other window and they work perfectly fine. *Knock on wood* The window lock is off.

I have considerable road noise coming from both the driver and from passenger sides; have done a little research and found this to be a persistent problem with most Subaru models with frame-less doors.

I just picked up my brand new 2010 Prius II tonight (8 miles on odo). I have a small issue though the headlights (both driver and passenger has moisture/condensation in the headlights) is this normal should I be worried? I'm hoping it will go away.

I have a vertical scratch on the rear passenger door on the driver's side. When window is fully closed, the scratch starts from below the weather strip molding and goes up about halfway on the glass. It looks to me something inside the door is rubbing against the glass when it's rolled down.

Having issue with power windows in 2010 Prius. I just noticed today that I can't roll down the rear passenger side window from the driver door switch but all the other windows work, and the rear passenger window works as I can roll down from the door itself.

My passenger bulb on the sun visor is completely out... Any way, to get a bulb for it? I can't seem to figure it out

I had the passenger sunvisor fall off when my 2007 Santa Fe was under warranty, so it got replaced for free. A few weeks ago the driver visor fell off. Since I have 70k, this one is going to be on me. I am tempted to use some epoxy and glue the thing in place. It won't be able to swivel to the left, but I seldom do that anyway.
When the visor falls out, it just dangles by the wires to vanity light. I press it back in with my thumb, but it falls out if I hit a bump.

so i got a set of saw blades of my buddy for nothing. before installing the car drove true and after lowering and putting adopters and saw blades on the passenger side wheel wobbles and pulls to the right its pretty much all over the road and cant for the life of me figure it out. only thing i can think of is axle or wheel bearing but there's no movement in the wheel when i move it side to side. only the right side seems to have this issue.

For about 2 weeks now when I turn my 2001.5 Passat off, the little light above the driver visor comes on. It only turns off when I put the visor back up. It never did this before and doesn't do it on the passenger side. Can I just disconnect that light? what was also strange was that if I didn't put the visor back up (turning the light off) a clicking sound would come from the instrument cluster and the cluster lights would flicker. But when I put the visor back up the clicking and flickering stopped.

There is an annoying rattle in my driver's side sun visor, it makes noise all the time, coming from inside of it. I'm wondering if it's covered by the warranty.

Sunroof drains? I just had a new windshield installed a few weeks ago. But I have not had a problem until today. Everything was fine until I tilted the sunroof and when hitting the brakes coming to stops. Water would run in thru/by the visor hinge.

My 2014 GX has been great except for one annoying problem; with BSM mode enabled, the passenger side BSM indicator randomly lights solid when driving down the road with NO vehicles around me (driver side indicator works perfectly 100% of the time). Does not appear to be correlated to temperature, day/night, humidity, speed, or conditions mentioned in the manual. Other current RX and GX owners I know don't seem to have the issue.
Can the BSM system be calibrated or is the detection program burned into the individual sensors and control module such that the system cannot be re-calibrated? Does a GX BSM system publication exist? I have several photos illustrating the problem. Reported to dealer. The dealers conversation with Lexus was that it is not a perfect system with no explanation as to why one side would have the issue but the other wouldn't. Below is the online reference that Lexus provides. The BSM feature is a very nice one except for this intermittent issue.

My 2013 has developed a rattle. The rear window visor (outside) on passenger side is loose - or loosening up... and rattles a lot when driving, which is very annoying.... Took a quick look to see how this thing is held into place, not quite sure what's best way to take it apart...

As of the last few weeks/month or so, my 2010 Tiguan has been feeling like it wobbles under speeds of 30mph. When I first accelerate it feels like it wobbles, once I hit 30mph the wobbling completely stops. Also, when I'm decelerating (even without pressing the brake) it wobbles as it slowly comes to a stop. I'm not sure what it could be and I have seen all types of different reasons. What it could be? I haven't crashed into anything to bend the rim or anything like that.

I switched my wheels over to the summer tires recently and while the wheel was off I noticed that the entire exhaust system wobbles and moves around. There are several rubber hangers supporting the exhaust and I'm thinking it was designed to move around rather than be rigid.
