Example complaints

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

“A driver and one passenger were traveling down an interstate highway at approx. 70 MPH. All windows were closed, the sunroof and sunroof shade were closed. Approx. Outside temperature was 45 degrees fahrenheit, a sunny but cold day, and the inside vehicle temperature was approx. 70 degrees fahrenheit. Out of nowhere, a loud pop (like a gunshot) was heard. Immediately following, there was the faint sound of outside air coming from the sunroof. The driver opened the sunroof shade just enough to immediately see that the entire sunroof glass was shattered (still intact, but completely shattered). …”
