“3/23/19 while driving in the middle lane of the freeway hwy 101south to san francisco the sunroof of my Nissan Rogue 2018 exploded. This startled the driver and the car swerved but the driver got the car under control. When we stopped to see what happened, the sunroof glass had exploded. We have had the car for 9 months.”

NHTSA complaint #11233881, filed 2019-07, 4,000 miles“There is separation (gap) occurring between the front bumper cover and fenders on both sides of the vehicle.

The major concern is that whether the panels will separate while driving and cause a major accident that could result in injuries to occupants of my vehicle or others. The vehicle was taken back to the dealership of purchase and they repaired only the left front side so I am not satisfied as I can still see the gaps. …”
