Example complaints

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

“I was driving home from work about 07:30am ct. I was on the interstate and hear a very loud bang and hear glass. I thought someone hit me but didn't feel anything. Looked in my mirrors, cars going by me and realized I was not hit. Then I thought someone shot my car. I continued to hear glass but didn't understand where it was coming from. Very shaken up not understanding what was happening. I pulled off on the next exit and found my sunroof had exploded. The glass flying out (hwy speed) caused damage to the paint on the roof and trunk of my car. …”
