NHTSA Complaint #11058116 — 2016 TOYOTA HIGHLANDER

DRIVING SOUTH ON 12/20/2017, ON US-287 NEAR THE OKLAHOMA/TEXAS BORDER WITH NO OTHER VEHICLES VISIBLE IN FRONT OF US OR ONCOMING TRAFFIC, THE FRONT SECTION OF OUR SUNROOF SUDDENLY EXPLODED. LUCKILY THE SHADE WAS DRAWN OR SMALL PIECES OF GLASS WOULD HAVE FALLEN DOWN ON MY FAMILY. THE WEATHER WAS CLEAR AND NEARLY CLOUDLESS BLUE SKY DAY. DEALER REFUSED TO REPLACE UNDER WARRANTY THEY SAID IT HAD TO HAVE BEEN A ROCK. THEY OFFERED NO PROOF THAT IT WAS A ROCK AND I FIND IT NEXT TO IMPOSSIBLE THAT IT COULD HAVE BEEN CAUSED BY ANYTHING ELSE. WHILE DRIVING WE DID HAVE A FAIRLY DRASTIC TEMPERATURE CHANGE FROM THE MID 20'S TO THE MID 60'S. WE WERE DRIVING STRAIGHT AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS.
