Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK TODAY ON THE INTERSTATE AND IT SOUNDED LIKE A SHOTGUN WENT OFF. MY SUNROOF SHATTERED. I LOOKED UP AND THERE WAS A HUGE HOLE IN THE MIDDLE. IT WAS ABOUT 68 DEGREES F, SO IT WASN'T COLD. I HAVE A GARMIN DASH CAM SO I WENT HOME AND REVIEWED THE VIDEO LOOKING FOR AN OBJECT COMING FROM THE SKY OR ROAD JUST BEFORE THE SOUND IN THE VIDEO. NOTHING. I DON'T BELIEVE THAT ANYTHING HIT THE SUNROOF. I DID NOT HIT ANY POTHOLES. THE GLASS JUST EXPLODED. I GOOGLED GTI SUNROOF BREAK AND FOUND SOMEONE IN CANADA WITH THE SAME STORY. I THINK VW HAS AN ISSUE.
