My wife uses the passenger sun visor mirror every time we go someplace now the visor is dropping out of it's stored position. On a trip by myself I noticed the visor dropping whenever I hit a bump. Within a hour drive the visor dropped down almost completely. I tried to squeeze the part that grips the rod but it did not help. Any suggestions?

That visor clip is pretty tough on ours. Is there something else that fell out that makes it so it won't hold the visor anymore?

Worse comes worse, you can get a new clip, but it would be easier if there is a quick fix.

The generic fix is to remove the clip and wrap the post in electric tape or something similar to increase the friction. I'm not sure how to remove it on a Kizashi though. Please sure if you find out!
