Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR ON AN EXPRESSWAY IN MILD RAIN AND STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT WHEN I HEARD A LOUD BANG. I WAS CONCERNED AND PULLED IN IMMEDIATELY INTO A GAS STATION. THE MOONROOF SHADE WAS OPEN. I GOT OUT OF THE CAR AND INSPECTED AROUND BUT DIDNOT SEE ANYTHING NOTICEABLE. AS I GOT INTO THE CAR TO DRIVE, I NOTICED A PIECE OF GLASS FALLING. THAT IS WHEN I LOOKED UP AND TO MY UTTER DISMAY SAW THAT THE FRONT PART OF THE PANORAMIC MOON ROOF WAS TOTALLY SHATTERED. THAT'S WHAT CAUSED THE LOUD BANG. I PULLED THE MOON ROOF SHADE AND RETURNED HOME IMMEDIATELY. AFTER REACHING HOME, I CHECKED THE ROOF TO FIND A LARGE PART OF THE ROOF WAS MISSING AND THE SIDES CRACKED. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. I AM 100% SURE THAT NOTHING HIT MY CAR. THIS IS A SECURITY HAZARD AND NEED TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY BY ACURA/HONDA. TO PUT THINGS INTO PERSPECTIVE, THIS CAR WAS BOUGHT 6 MONTHS AGO BRAND NEW AND HAS JUST 3500 MILES ON IT. NOT GOOD.
