2018 Toyota RAV4 Visibility (wipers, defrost, mirrors) Problems

“The view out the front windshield becomes obscured when the sun shines directly toward window because the front of the dash area becomes reflected back in the window and you can no longer see due out the window to the glare. I've nearly hit pedestrians because I couldn't see them walking in front of my car when this is happening.”

“I was driving straight down the interstate and my sunroof exploded right over my head. I was not trying to open it, nothing impacted it, it just exploded and the glass shattered everywhere into my car and on my head. The interstate was not rough road and the weather conditions were sunny and 50 degrees. Again no impact from and kind of weather or debris”

“At around 1:30 pm, february 7, 2020, on a sunny and windy day, I was driving on md rte. 32 heading towards columbia just past I-95, traveling about 60 MPH. I was driving next to a large truck and because there was a lot of wind, and the truck was being blown by the wind, I decided to drive pass it. After I had driven past the truck, I heard a very loud bang right above my head as if something exploded. I did not see anything and the car appeared to be ok, so I kept driving. …”

“1/30/2021 traveling approx 74 MPH on interstate in light traffic and light rain (heavy drizzle) and outside temp around 47 degrees. I was listening to an audiobook when I heard a noise like a popping sound and then a roar as wind started coming in the car and what I now know was the shattered glass from my sunroof falling in on me. Shattered glass fell on me and when I moved it wedged itself between me and my seat making it uncomfortable to move for fear of being cut by the glass. It was not a rock the sunroof spontaneously exploded.”
