Example complaints

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

“I was driving north on interstate 75 in atlanta. There was no overpass above me and, because it was the early afternoon, there were few cars/trucks around. There was no debris flying through the air or rocks being kicked up from the pavement. Inexplicably, my panoramic sunroof exploded over my head. The glass shattered and thousands of shards fell on the windscreen. (luckily, I had the windscreen closed or that glass would have covered me.) I was on my way to kentucky for the weekend but had no choice but to bring the car immediately to Porsche atlanta perimeter. …”
