    Thank you! My wife was driving me nuts with this and I don't want to pay $185 so I followed your video instructions and it worked.

    Great job! We followed your directions and we had the same piece broken. Ours was in 2 pieces so we Gorilla glued those back together and waited 24 hrs. before continuing the fix. Zip ties worked great. We reinstalled the visor and crossed our fingers. Hopefully it will hold for a long time. The toughest part was getting the cover off to get to the screws. Even though we were careful we still ended up breaking the cover in 2 places. Gorilla glued them back on and waited 24 hrs before reinstalling. The cover snapped back in place. Thank you for posting this video.

    Hello Robert, just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate this video on the Nissan visor repair. My Nissan had the EXACT issue with almost the exact break in the clip. After watching your video I was able to duplicate the repair with the zip ties. You saved me a ton of money and I'm so grateful for your time you spent posting this video. Take care and thanks again!!

    Worked like a charm!! Thank you so much. Great step by step instructions, photos/video, everything. Right down to the size of the screws. You made this so easily do-able. I was so frustrated with that thing not staying in place. You are my hero!

    Robert - that was an awesome video - you have saved us over $500 Australian dollars for new ones or a trip to the wreckers,! The video shows exactly what we found and the cable ties went in just as shown. Love the tips on being patient and easing the visors open - very useful. Really appreciate the time you took to make video.

    Thank you so much for your video. It was right on point for my SUV. I have an Infiniti JX35. All the same. I was able to fix my sun visor with your assistance and zip ties. It was very easy. In my opinion, the hardest part was removing the screw cover. Saved me money. Thanks again.

  • @BLACKJACKRACING07
    @BLACKJACKRACING07 Před 4 lety +2

    Thank you!!! I found this video just looking to see how exactly to take the visor off my wife's 13 Pathfinder. I kept watching and was able to fix it!

  • @MsGoldend1
    @MsGoldend1 Před 2 lety

    Thank you thank you thank you.. just picked up a used Pathfinder and this is one of the things the dealer did not take care of and I was able to do it in about 15 minutes. Great video!

  • @JackHandy1969
    @JackHandy1969 Před 6 lety

    Thanks, Robert! I just used your technique to fix my wife's pathfinder. There was 5 broken pieces of plastic inside. It broke such that the mechanism was on the same side as the vanity mirror. So I had to cut the plastic ring holding the mechanism in place so I could move it, carefully, to the other side so I could zip tie it up. Works well now. Thanks!!!

  • @meh2424
    @meh2424 Před 5 lety

    Paid the dealer 275 to fix dangling driver visor. One week later the passenger visor did the same thing. This video saved me hundreds. Thank you for taking the time to post. From start to finish it took me less than 15 minutes.

  • @c.almond8240
    @c.almond8240 Před 4 lety +1

    After watching your video and seeing what mine might look like on the inside (2013 Murano), I simply drilled a hole through that area and secured with a nut, bolt and a couple of washers. Works perfectly.

  • @tyvaldez5963
    @tyvaldez5963 Před 5 lety

    Thank you. Had the dealer replace 3 of these and all 3 broke. This is the best how-to video I've seen so far. Was gonna ask if it was still usable but I had seen that it was.

  • @americathebeautiful830
    @americathebeautiful830 Před 4 lety +1

    Thank you, Mr. Bencsko! I appreciate you taking the time to make this video. My little tab cover broke but that's a cheap part to replace compared to the visor itself.

  • @JamieKhau
    @JamieKhau Před rokem

    Thank you for the video. If anyone else thinking of trying this fix, two things I noticed when I did it: 1) for the cover that hides the mounting screws, if you think of it as a D shape, the two side tabs are right beside the points, and 2) I used a teaspoon to pry open the two halves of the visor

  • @damittastraughter9131
    @damittastraughter9131 Před 3 lety

  • @markwilson3011
    @markwilson3011 Před 2 lety +1

    Thank you so much Robert after watching your video I had the courage and insight to have a go at fixing my sun visors . My only variation was that I also wired them as well as using the ties thanks again and please do more videos you are such a blessing!

  • @kentmcallister846

    As a follow up, your tutorial did indeed help me fix my problem. Thank you! It worked exactly as you so aptly demonstrated. No more droop!!!!

  • @laureanocangahuala6015
    @laureanocangahuala6015 Před 5 lety +3

    Robert - thanks for posting; much appreciated. I had the analogous problem on a Nissan Murano. Due to its slightly different design, I had to use 4 small zip ties (instead of 2 'regular' ones that you used), and I had to rip stitches and resew the fabric back around the visor. I chuckled at your comment at 7:02 about the 'poor design' with respect to the wiring. Thanks again - cheers,

  • @davidbird1592
    @davidbird1592 Před rokem

    Robert....thank you! I have a 2015 Pathfinder and both visors are now drooping.. Nice job showing this fix! Will be trying out your solution ASAP.

  • @Fritzenburg
    @Fritzenburg Před 5 lety

    Thanks so much 2015 Pathfinder visor is now repaired. Just took my time with being very careful and patient with the separation. One difference is that the arm was trapped by a piece of plastic, but I was still able to feed the cable ties through and pull them nice and tight. Thank you for your directions.

  • @leroitupou251
    @leroitupou251 Před měsícem

    Thank you service.

  • @Dowling1199
    @Dowling1199 Před 3 lety

    Cannot thank you enough!! It’s been driving me nuts, and the dealership (Edison Nissan in NJ) wanted to charge me $480 to fix with a bumper to bumper warranty because they weren’t unusable. Such a joke. Thank you!

  • @bottechia
    @bottechia Před 5 lety +1

    Thanks for the great fix tip! I was able to fix the passenger side visor on my 2013 Infiniti JX35. The dealer was going to charge $300+ to replace it.

  • @AussieDors
    @AussieDors Před 6 lety

    Great informative video. Thank you. After taking mine apart successfully I found the plastic around the metal clip you zip-tied was completely broken. Found a new one on an online auction site for one hundred dollars buy now.
    I appreciate the advice.
    Ps I laughed at your video as I am amazed at your ingenuity to fix this but hear the Smoke detector chirping in the background. I hope you had time to fix that too!

    are you kidding... man wow thank you so much. Literally the most annoying thing ever and this worked 100%. Everyone just be careful taking off the plastic cover and also taking apart the video itself but otherwise this is straightforward. Amazing. Thank you Robert

  • @johns1404
    @johns1404 Před 2 lety

    Saw this fix for the '13 Pathfinder. Mine has the same problem and is a '15 and just slightly different than the '13, but still close. So, since the dealer wants $217 for a new one, I tried your method. Worked like a charm. A little bit off since the bracket didn't want to fit exactly flat, so the visor dosen't work perfectly every time but close to perfect. Thanks so much for posting this video!

    • @neat383
      @neat383  Před 2 lety

      Glad it helped. It will break again as mine did but it helps. I ended up getting some on Amazon and replaced them eventually

  • @mikeliles1583
    @mikeliles1583 Před 5 lety

    Thanks for your video, had to make a slight modification due to how it was broken , but the zip ties work great on my 20014 Pathfinder. Looks like I will need to repair the other side soon. Thanks again for sharing your fix.

  • @bbqguy777
    @bbqguy777 Před 5 lety

    Dude! Perfect video. I just fixed both of my visors this evening in an hour. Finally, they’re not flopping and are secure to the roof. Unfortunately I wasn’t quite soft enough and snapped a cap in half. I’d rather pay for a cap vs. two more junky sun visors. Thanks again for the vid, saved me a ton!!

    Thanks Robert, I managed to get three zip ties on mine. Heh, heh.
    Just for the heck of it I checked with the local dealer and he told me $300.00. Didn't even hesitate, I think he's heard of this problem before. Thanks again, much appreciated.

  • @davehunt6993
    @davehunt6993 Před 6 lety

    Thanks! It worked great. Nissan clearly has a problem with both the pathfinder and the QX60. I have the QX60 and it is exactly the same fix.
    Thanks Again - works perfect

  • @BruceCaraway
    @BruceCaraway Před 4 lety +3

    Thank YOU! This worked great and my wife’s visor works great now. Hardest part was removing the screw head cover - mine broke into two pieces but I was able to tack them back in place with a little epoxy. Too bad Nissan didn’t think to make the clip mechanism from the same material as this cover :)

    Thank you so much Robert for your video, it was very helpful and very detailed. Again thanks for allowing us save about $180.00 which is the average cost in the Nissan Dealer. I think that Nissan should rethink the way the built some of the parts for our cars.
