Consumer Description

WHEN MOVING THE CAR IN REVERSE FROM OVERNIGHT PARKING IN MY GARAGE, THE BRAKES SQUEAL EXCESSIVELY. THIS SOUND DOES NOT OCCUR WHEN BRAKING WHILE MOVING IN A FORWARD DIRECTION. THE CAR STOPS APPROPRIATELY, BUT THE SOUND IT QUITE LOUD IN REVERSE BRAKING MODE. THE SUNROOF CREEKS AND POPS DURING CITY DRIVING AND HIGHWAY DRIVING. I JUST READ AN ARTICLE ON CONSUMERREPORTS.COM ABOUT EXPLODING SUNROOF PROBLEMS AND I'M CONCERN THAT THIS COULD HAPPEN DUE TO LACK OF REPORTING AND MANUFACTURERS NOT TAKING OWNERSHIP OF THE DEFECT. POPPING SOUNDS COMING FROM MY SUNROOF HAVE ME CONCERNED ABOUT MY PANORAMIC SUNROOF EXPLODING DURING TRAVEL IN THE VEHICLE
