Consumer Description
The component that failed was the glass of my sunroof. My sunroof somehow exploded on me while I was driving. There were no vehicles or other things that would have caused rocks to fly and hit the dead center of the sunroof. If you look at the images you can tell that the glass is pointing upward and not downward. I was lucky that I had my son shade cover closed., If it was not closed I would have had large pieces of glass fall in my vehicle and potentially cause cuts and lesions from the glass. This could not be heat related as it was at 6: 58am. This problem has not been identified by any dealer or independent repair center but it's very similar to many others who have had these complaints on your website and consumer reports. The components have not been inspected by the dealer or police and there were no warning signs of any kind no visible original cracks or anything that would have caused it to do what I did. I did attempt to contact Toyota but they refused to assist and told me to contact my insurance, the dealership crown toyota refused to assist and told me to contact my insurance and said that you rock must have hit. They also wouldn't repair it because they will not accept payment from my insurance company which is Mercury.
