Default Sunvisor

please have a look at the attached pictures. The visor on the driver-side doesn't go up to be flush as the visor on the passenger side does. It seems that the hinge is bent (not the slightest idea how this could ever had happened), can this be replaced/fixed? It is annoying the way it is now.
Thanks

Stupid question but did you try just shoving the padded portion back down the visor rod a little?. The visors on our LS slide down the rod to provide more coverage down the side windows when needed.

Thanks, problem is maybe not quite the same. The visor does hold any position I want to put it into, but I cannot really move it to the all up-position, there is a resistance if I want to move it up as if the hinge impedes the move.

I had a similar issue in another car. The plastic piece the visor arm went into was cracked. It was difficult to see. And when pushed up, the crack would open and no allow the visor to go fully up.

Not sure if that's your issue or not.
