Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK IN MY 2006 SCION TC AT APPROXIMATELY 5:30 PM. GOING 60 MPH WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MY REAR SUNROOF WINDOW EXPLODED. IT SOUNDED LIKE A GUN SHOT AND ENDED UP CRACKING THE ENTIRE WINDOW, SENDING PIECED FLYING BEHIND ME. I HAD THE REAR COVER CLOSED, SO NO DEBRIS WAS ABLE TO ENTER THE VEHICLE. I JUST PURCHASED THE VEHICLE USED FROM A DEALERSHIP SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND THIS INCIDENT HAPPENED MONDAY AFTERNOON. I TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THAT I MAY HAVE TO PAY TO GET IT FIXED. I DO NOT AGREE WITH THIS, AND SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS ISSUE SINCE IT SEEMS TO BE OCCURRING TO NUMEROUS PEOPLE. ALSO, I WAS NOT DRIVING UNDER AN OVERPASS AND THERE WAS NO SIGN OF ANY OBJECT HITTING THE GLASS. IT JUST SIMPLY SHATTERED. *TR
