Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“The glass sunroof spontaneously exploded under normal driving conditions while at freeway speed of 65-70 MPH. The nearest vehicle in front of us was over 300 yards ahead, nothing hit the sunroof to cause it to explode outward (from the inside out). It is my understanding that there have been numerous incidents of this happening due to atmospheric conditions between the sunroof and the interior screen with temperature changes. If the glass was laminated, this might not happen. …”
