It's a safety issue. it should be mandated by law. Being able to see is kinda important to not dying in a crash.

Not sure if you're in favor or opposing extending visors...

I like my MINI's set-up: separate side visor. Works great, too!

I agree...It's so annoying that the visor doesn't have an extension. It doesn't do any good as it is. If anyone knows of an aftermarket visor that would work, please let me know.

I agree. The design team would only have to spend 15 minutes driving this car on a sunny morning or afternoon to recognize that this is a serious design flaw. THIS SHOULD BE A SAFETY RECALL. I have already had multiple occasions where sunblinding could have caused an accident when driving this vehicle.
