Visor Screen sinking: we're all gonna diieee

The screen on my Pro is beginning to sink in every time i tap on the upper right side, just as what happened on my old Deluxe.

When tapping on the upper right, as when accessing the pull-dow menu, the screen gives in a little making a slight "dob" sound and overall just makes the tapping feeling very mushy and unpleasant.

Tightening the screws from the back won't help. Any solution?

Is this a very common problem or am I cursed with having screens sink in everything I get?

Common Problem :(

This is common on visors - it's happened on both of mine and many people here on the board. It's caused by a little plastic post which support the screen breaking. Kinda bad engineering. Take apart your visor (you'll see what I mean) and just put in a piece of paper or business card (a real small piece) to support the screen up there. It's an easy fix and works fine...
I just had to do it to my platinum recently.

what he said... and it seemed to be a very common problem on all black visors. when i upgraded to an ornage vdx after 2 solos, it was the first time my screen stayed still.
