Consumer Description

AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD GOING ABOUT 60 MILES PER HOUR MY SUNROOF EXPLODED. I DID NOT HIT ANY BUMPS NOR DID ANY OBJECT STRIKE MY VEHICLE. IT SOUNDED LIKE A BOMB WENT OFF IN MY VEHICLE. LUCKILY I HAD THE SHADE CLOSED SO THE GLASS LAID ON THE SHADE. HOWEVER, LOOKING IN THE REAR VIEW MIRROR THERE WAS A LOT OF GLASS FLYING AROUND. NO ONE WAS AROUND ME AT THE TIME OF THE EXPLOSION. MY LOCAL HYUNDAI DEALER IS FIXING THE GLASS FOR HALF THE COST OF THE ACTUAL REPAIR PER HYUNDAI CORPORATION. I STILL WOULD LIKE THIS TO BE INVESTIGATED. I'M TERRIFIED IT'LL HAPPEN AGAIN AFTER IT IS FIXED.
