Consumer Description

TAKING A DRIVE ON A SUNNY DAY, I HAD MY SUNROOF OPEN AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY HUSBAND AND I HEARD A CRACKING SOUND. WHEN WE GOT HOME, WE NOTICED THE FRONT PART OR WIND DEFLECTOR PART OF SUNROOF WAS CRACKED. TOOK IT TO TOYOTA AND THEY SAID THERE MUST HAVE BEEN A PEBBLE BECAUSE THE GLASS SHOWED A POINT OF IMPACT.EARD ANYTHING HIT THE WINDOW, IT JUST BROKE. WHY IS SOMETHING THAT IS SUPPOSED TO BE A WIND DEFLECTOR MADE OF GLASS?I NEVER EVEN NOTICED THIS PIECE OF GLASS THAT POPS UP AND NOW I FEEL VULNERABLE FOR DRIVING IN THE FUTURE,. NOT TO MENTION THE ALMOST $500.00 THAT IT WILL COST ME TO FIX THIS FRIDAY. THIS SHOULD BE A WARRANTED ITEM OR IT SHOULD BE MADE OF A PLASTIC MATERIAL. I SAW MANY COMPLAINTS LIKE MINE. I BELIEVE IT SHATTERED FROM THE WIND JUST LIKE THE MANY COMPLAINTS THAT I READ. I LOVED MY SCION TC AND NOW I AM DISENCHANTMENT WITH THIS CAR. *TR
