A sun visor earns its keep twice a day: low morning and evening sun, plus winter glare off snow, are exactly the conditions where a second of blindness matters. The Crosstrek's visor swings down to block windshield glare and pivots on its dual axis hinge to cover the side window, with a flip up vanity mirror in the back. Inside the padded body, a pivot spring holds the visor wherever you set it, and that spring is the part that ages: when it weakens, the visor droops into your eyeline and will not stay up, which is the complaint that brings nearly every buyer to this page.
A sagging or flopping visor from a failed pivot spring leads by a wide margin, followed by torn or stained fabric, a broken vanity mirror cover, and snapped mounting clips from an over enthusiastic pull. The spring is not serviceable separately, so a replacement visor with healthy tension is the fix, and at this price it is an easy one.
