Consumer Description

THE CAR WAS PARKED IN MY GARAGE OVER NIGHT. IN THE MORNING, WHEN LEAVING FOR WORK I FOUND THE CARS SUNROOF HAD EXPLODED. GLASS WAS ON THE GARAGE FLOOR, CAR ROOF, WINDSHIELD, HOOD, AND REAR GLASS. SHARDS OF THE SUNROOF WERE HANGING DOWN INSIDE THE CAR AND THERE WAS SHATTERED GLASS INSIDE THE CAR. THE EXPLOSION CAUSED THE GLASS TO BLOW OUT, AND LEFT A LARGE HOLE WHERE THE SUNFOOF WAS LOCATED.THIS WAS A DANGEROUS EVENT AND EVEN IF FIXED I DO NOT WANT TO DRIVE THIS CAR. IF THE SUNROOF IS REPLACED WHAT GUARANTEE DO WE HAVE THAT THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN RESEARCHED, RESOLVED, AND THAT CORRECTED COMPONENETS ARE BEING INSTALLED IN OUR VEHICLE. *TR
