Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I was driving down the highway and my moonroof suddenly shattered. I had taken a left hand turn onto the highway and shortly after I reached the 55 MPH speed limit I heard a loud noise and didn't know what happened at first, then I heard more crackling from above and figured it was the moonroof. Luckily I had the shade closed and there were no other vehicles around me at the time. Since there were no other vehicles around and I wasn't driving under an overpass, it seems to me this happened spontaneously vs something like a rock hitting the moonroof.”
NHTSA complaint #11228439, filed 2019-06, 42,000 miles“Takata recall. The airbag deployed while my right hand was on the 2 o'clock position. I was going about 30 MPH on a city street, and hit a car that stopped suddenly in front of me. It was like a bomb blast onto my wrist, forcefully blasting out acid and air or whatever's in that airbag. I have a trauma injury and chemical burns on my wrist. There are chemical burn holes all over the dashboard as well. At first I thought my beaded bracelet had punctured my wrist. One burn looked like a cigarette burn, and within 2 hours the burn hole skin turned pitch black. …”
NHTSA complaint #10928053, filed 2016-11, 13,000 miles“As I was driving down us rte 95 yesterday, going over the bridge into portsmouth, nh at ~65 MPH, my sunroof suddenly exploded, covering me and the interior of my car with broken glass. Fortunately, I was able to pull over to an exit just over the bridge and call for assistance. I think I avoided an accident by virtue of there not being a lot of cars near me when this happened. It was a sunny day, ~50 degrees and my car thermostat was at 67 degrees so temperature differential was not a factor. Both the state police officer and the tow truck driver opined that the window blew out from within. …”
NHTSA complaint #10794357, filed 2015-11, 21,000 miles“Discovering multiple locations where paint is peeling. Identical locations to the Acura mdx white pearl paint. Rear roof near rear door, rear door below glass, left rear panel, front panel near hood, rear bumper and front window passenger side window frame.”
NHTSA complaint #11405722, filed 2021-03, 118,500 miles“Traveling on interstate at about 74 MPH the moon roof shattered without warning. The inside visor was open and the glass moon roof was closed at the time. Glass fragments dropped on top of driver and passenger.”
