" ...  The shade initially would hold after closing but later popped loose and would collapse to the driver's side.  ...  "
comment
" ...  I don’t like how I can’t reach my other side of the windshield to grab the shade to close. ... When I have a passenger they can hand it to me to pull all the way over to hook and be done but when alone I have to lean way over the seat and grab it. ... The first night I put on the suction cups the next morning one had fallen off but I reapplies and no problems since. ... I bought the shade in July and it is now Sept. and it’s always falls off. ... I’ve learned to hold the top while it retracts so it doesn’t fling back.  ...  "
