Consumer Description

THE SUNROOF IN THE 2018 GMC SIERRA EXPLODED OUTWARD OF THE VEHICLE, DROPPING GLASS SHARDS INTO THE CABIN. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AT ABOUT 15 MPH IN A NEIGHBOORHOOD STREET WITH NO OVERHANGING OBJECTS THAT MAY HAVE CONTACTED THE GLASS. THE WEATHER FORECEAST FOR THE DAY WAS SUNNY WITH A HIGH OF 76 DEGREE FAHRENHEIT. NO EXTERNAL CONTACT WAS MADE TO THE SUNROOF GLASS PRIOIR TO THE INCIDENT. NO INVESTIGATION WAS DESIRED BY BOTH THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP OR GENERAL MOTORS ON THE INCIDENT ITSELF. BOTH HAVE DIRECTED ME TO MAKING AN INSURANCE CLAIM TO RECTIFY THE SITUATION.
