Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I was driving home from work on the morning of october 14, 2015 when the sunroof literally shattered into pieces. It sounded just like a shotgun going off in the inside of the car. I did not hit anything, nor did anything hit the car. The roof just exploded. If this is a defect in the glass, I do not feel it is fair that I pay to have this repaired.”
