Sliding visor gets stuck

[IRPT]

Ran across this the other day and found it pretty interesting especially since there were several of us that did not know that the visor slid out.

Did you know . . .
Well, maybe you better look at the WHOLE list:

Rear seats that fold flat, tumble forward, and are removable.
Front seat belts include height-adjustable turning loops and traveling inboard buckles for added comfort. User-ready child seat lower anchors and top tether anchors minimize child seat movement for all rear seating positions.
Daylight dash bright feature when lights are on. Turning the turn signal mounted switch past full normal bright turns the odometer and radio to daylight bright for daytime headlight use. Another notch turns on the overhead dome light plus the console light if you have one.

Steering Column — Height adjustable
Ventilation Ducts — Rear, located under and near the rear of standard center console
Rear doors open much wider than normal for easy entrance.

The plastic rail will crack after extended use.
This happened on both of the PT Cruiser's that I own.

Funny you should mention that. I just noticed a 1" crack in my driver side rod this morning. I'm going to pull it off tonight and flow in some Super-Glue and see if I can stop it. ( Sorry for resurecting such an old thread. Did not check the dates....)
