Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING, THE SUNROOF SHATTERED FOR NO APPARENT REASON. THE ROOF WAS CLOSED AT THE TIME, AND THE HEADLINER WAS ALSO CLOSED. IT MADE A VERY LOUD NOISE AND THE VEHICLE WAS PULLED TO THE SIDE TO ASCERTAIN THE REASON FOR THE NOISE. IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE SUNROOF HAD COMPLETELY SHATTERED. THERE WAS NO BRIDGE OVERPASS, SO IT IS DOUBTED THAT SOMETHING WAS DROPPED. NO PHYSICAL INJURY OCCURRED, HOWEVER, IT WAS A SCARY INCIDENT. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE CHEVY DEALER, WHO STATED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL ON THE GLASS AND THAT IT MUST HAVE BEEN A ROCK. THE GLASS & FRAME WERE REPLACED THROUGH AN INSURANCE CLAIM.
