Vehicle was not in motion and motor was turned off.”

The glass projected outward, confirming that nothing fell from the sky or came up from the road as glass would have blown down or to the rear if it had been impacted by an object. I have filed a report with Hyundai's national customer service line and filing a complaint here in hopes something is done about this scary issue. …”

As I noticed the knocking noise getting louder, I tapped the brakes & the vehicle's speed dramatically decreased to approximately 40 MPH. …”
