NHTSA Complaint #10606596 — 2010 HONDA ACCORD

WHILE DRIVING ON HWY 4, ANTIOCH, CA. MY WIFE AND I HEARD THIS LOUD EXPLOSION ON THE ROOF OF OUR CAR. SCARED THE[XXX] OUT OF US. WE PULLED OFF THE FREEWAY, GOT OUT AND CHECKED THE ROOF. THE SUN ROOF WAS COMPLETELY BLOW OUT WITH GLASS EVERYWHERE. LIKE A BOMB WENT OFF. NOTHING HIT US, THE FREEWAY WAS REALLY CLEAR. IF WE HAD OUR INSIDE TOP PANEL OPENED, GLASS WOULD HAVE COME RAINING DOWN ON US AND WE COULD HAVE PANIC AND GOT INTO A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. SOMEONE COULD HAVE REALLY GOTTEN HURT OR KILLED. OUR CAR IS LIKE BRAND NEW. ONLY 13,300 MILES AS WE DON'T DRIVE IT THAT MUCH. WE DROVE TO OUR HONDA DEALERSHIP, ABOUT A MILE AND HALF AWAY AND THEY KEPT THE CAR AND FIXED IT. THEY TOLD US THEY KNEW OF THIS PROBLEM BEFORE. THIS IS A REAL SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE ADDRESSED SOONER THAN LATER BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED. A REAL DEFECT IN THIS DESIGN. THE WEB SHOWED A LOT OF THIS THING HAPPENING. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
