NHTSA Complaint #10633180 — 2010 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA

WHILE TRAVELING ON I-96 WEST TRAVELING AT 70MPH THE SUNROOF WHICH WAS CLOSED AT THE TIME SUDDENLY EXPLODED SENDING SHARDS OF GLASS EVERYWHERE. IT SOUNDED LIKE A GUN WENT OFF IN THE VEHICLE. I WAS VERY FORTUNATE THAT THE SUNROOF CURTAIN WAS CLOSED AT THE TIME WHICH CONTAINED MOST OF THE GLASS SHARDS. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO. THERE WAS NOBODY ELSE ON THE HIGHWAY AROUND ME SO THERE IS NO POSSIBILITY THAT THIS WAS A STONE OR OBJECT FROM ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE TEMPERATURE OUTSIDE WAS 92 DEGREES F AND I HAD THE DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW OPEN APPROXIMATELY 50%. THIS WAS A TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE THAT I WAS LUCKY TO WALK AWAY FROM WITHOUT PHYSICAL INJURY. HOWEVER, I WILL NOT DRIVE THIS CAR AGAIN WITHOUT AN EXPLANATION! VERY DANGEROUS CAR!!!! *TR
