Example complaints

“I was traveling along an interstate and heard a deafening sound. I lost control of my vehicle, left the interstate and was heading down an embankment when I finally regained control of my vehicle. I made it back to the interstate and pulled off at the next exit. I heard the sound as if something that was pertaining to my roof. When I pulled back the inside sunroof cover glass started coming into my car. I looked and my sunroof had a large hole in it and from the look of the glass pushing outward it exploded. …”
NHTSA complaint #11047083, filed 2017-11, 73,876 miles“Sunroof glass exploded spontaneously while driving on highway about 80mph with little traffic and clear skies. Luckily, the sunroof interior slide cover was closed preventing the glass shards to fall into the vehicle. Took car to a local Acura dealer and they did not mention a recall and needed time to order a new part and schedule service. Declined their service and went to an auto glass service for pending repairs. I believe this was no fault of my own and I wasn't aware of this sunroof issue. If the guard was not closed myself and passengers would most likely get hurt.”
NHTSA complaint #11231614, filed 2019-07, 70,000 miles“Moonroof / Sunroof glass spontaneously exploded as while driving on Interstate at approximately 65mph. This caused many small peices of glass to break inward some of which entered into the cabin and onto passengers including the driver. The glass exploding was very loud and caused me to jerk my steering wheel. It scared the passenger as well. Also small slivers of glass can be felt in the skin.”
NHTSA complaint #11528882, filed 2023-06“While driving Moon roof shattered. Available for inspection. Our lives were put at risk by the sudden onset of loud shattering sound, distraction while driving. Shattered glass could have caused impairment.”
