“Driving 65 MPH (temperature 34 degrees, no heat on in car) early sunday am 12/4 (no other vehicles in front of me) and my sunroof glass exploded. Dealer is trying to tell me it was from a rock or other particle item (seriously... No one was in front me). The noise sounded like a gunshot and I immediately pulled over. I have 5 total pictures but the system isn't allowing me to attach more.”
NHTSA complaint #10929918, filed 2016-12, 49,000 miles“Have had numbeous repairs starting at 50000 miles. Heater blower unit went out at around 50000 - was actually melted according to mechanic. Starter went out at 90000. Was not getting enough power to starter. Drove it the next day after the $1000 repair and it's smells like something is burning. The vechicle does not seem to be getting enough power to vital parts and are overheating and melting. I have paid over $6000 in repairs and it keeps getting worse. I'm afraid to drive it for fear the vehicle will catch on fire. …”

Luckily I was able to pull over quickly. Initially I did not know what was wrong but when I completed the errand I stopped for I realized my air conditioning was not working. I took this into my mechanic who advised my of all the parts that needed replacing. I am still waiting on a part and in the meantime I have a visual of what happened. The air conditioning dial is a burnt out mess until the final repair can be accomplished. …”
