Default Universal Remote Button Failure

This is a 2014 model. Two of the three universal remote buttons (on the visor) are stuck in the "in" position and won't pop back out to the normal position. In other words, they don't work. I can still use the third button or my remote that came with the garage door opener. Anybody have an easy fix? Probably not worth it to me to have the dealer fix it as I can use the original garage door opener.

Left two buttons in abnormal in position.

Probably the easiest fix would be to replace the visor. It is an easy plug & play swap. Usually can find them on ebay at a reasonable price.

I agree with replacing the visor.

Cultrag Factory Parts has the following listed:
Sunshade - GM (84622165) is a new visor with the switch with suede covering priced at $244.00.
Sun-Visor - GM (84445346) is a new visor with the switch without the suede covering priced at $237.72.

GM Parts Direct has the parts for a better price but compare the total cost after shipping to see which has the better deal. Shipping varies with where you are located Vs where they are located and whether or not a handling charge is included.
