I then heard more glass shattering sound and realized it was my sunroof glass that had suddenly broken. The mesh cover beneath it was closed so I was not injured. When I went home and did a quick google search, several other incidents of this happening popped up. There were no warning lamps or messages or symptoms of the problem prior to failure. …”
NHTSA complaint #11696583, filed 2025-10“I was driving to work recently on a smooth road. I was not near overpasses or other surroundings that would cause debris.
