Driver Side Sun Visor

Can anyone tell me for sure if this is warranty part. I see that a lot of poeple have had problems with them and the dealer took care of it for free. I am looking for something in writing to bring to the dealer.

Thanks,
Jeff

I'm waiting for a recall. Everybody tear the thing off when it breaks, and say it hit you in the face while driving. That way it's a safety issue, and I can get a free replacement.

I just got my replaced for free yesterday.

Oh, and for whoever was asking about old part number versus new part number when you get a replacement, I was told it's the same part number.

I had my passenger side replaced a couple of weeks ago. The service writer was VERY familiar with the procedure. He did not even comment. Just shook his head and started typing. Believe me, ALL Mazda service departments are aware of the problem.
