NHTSA Complaint #11088693 — 2016 DODGE CHARGER

4/6/2018 WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE 44 DRIVING AT 65 MPH TRAVELING EAST TOWARD ST LOUIS MO OUR SUNROOF EXPLODED. SOUNDED LIKE A BLOWN TIRE. THE SUNSHADE WAS CLOSED AND MOST OF THE GLASS BLEW OUTWARD. VERY LITTLE GLASS WAS LEFT. THERE WAS NO REASON FOR THE SUNROOF TO EXPLODE. UNKNOWN REASON. WE WERE NOT DRIVING UNDER AN OVERPASS. IT JUST EXPLODED. WE WERE LUCKY TO HAVE THE SUNSHADE CLOSED AND LUCKY THAT THE FLYING GLASS DID NOT HURT OR HIT THE CARS BEHIND US. I KEEP MY COOL DURING PROBLEMS. I JUST SLOWED DOWN AND PULLED OVER ABOUT A MILE LATER. HOWEVER, I COULD SEE HOW IT MIGHT STARTLE SOME PEOPLE INTO AN ACCIDENT. THE CAR WAS 18 MONTHS OLD WITH 27,XXX MILES. I BABY MY CHARGER SRT AND AGAIN, THERE WAS NO REASON. IT IS THE CAR COMPANY'S STAND THAT THERE IS NO WARRANTY ON GLASS. OUR INSURANCE IS PAYING FOR IT, BUT WE ARE OUT THE DEDUCTIBLE OF $250. AND, WHEN I STARTED THIS REPORT I HAD TO CLICK ON THE AREA SUCH AS TIRES, ENGINE ECT. THERE IS NOT AN ICON THAT SAYS SUNROOF. I HAD TO CLICK "OTHER". YOU NEED AN ICON FOR SUNROOF... I DO HAVE PICTURES. IT IS JUST A SUNROOF WITH A LITTLE GLASS AROUND THE EDGE STILL ATTACHED.
