Consumer Description
WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY A SUDDEN LOUD BANG OCCURRED WHICH SOUNDED EXACTLY LIKE A GUNSHOT GOING OFF AND GLASS SHOWERED DOWN ON MY HEAD. STARTLED, I SWERVED ON THE HIGHWAY, BUT LUCKILY DID NOT HIT ANY OTHER VEHICLES. I PULLED OFF THE FREEWAY AND FOUND THAT MY SUNROOF HAD EXPLODED WITH NO OUTSIDE INFLUENCE. IT WAS SHATTERED AND THE GLASS WAS BLOW OUT IN AN UPWARD FASHION, AS IF IT HAD HAPPENED FROM THE INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE. I IMMEDIATELY TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATED THAT IT WAS NOT FROM AN OUTSIDE SOURCE. I WAS GIVEN A LOANER CAR AND THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY WOULD TAKE CARE OF IT, BUT THIS HAPPENED 9/23/2016 AND IT IS YET TO BE SEEN IF I WILL NEED TO FRONT ANY MONEY OUT OF MY POCKET.
