Consumer Description
I was driving around my neighborhood one day with my panoramic sunroof open and at the red light i wanted to close the sunroof (california summer sun is no joke) and it made this really big 'THUMP' noise, thought the sunroof glass cracked. After the big THUMP noise, the sunroof wouldnt close and this is after the light turned green so i am driving slowly because there was rattling noise coming from the sunroof and didnt want the sunroof to fly out from the car. So i had to pull over and try to figure out if its okay to drive with stuck sunroof with it rattling noise. after that i tried to close and open the sunroof and wouldnt move or do anything, it was just stuck. So i turned my hazzards on then drove slowly back home. after about 30 mins playing with sunroof in my garage, hoping that i will close (then at least i can still drive my car without being scared that it will fly out from my car), finally go it to closed but now it doesnt work at all. then i have found out that from 2014 to 2018 pano sunroof is known issue and there were safety recall on some pano sunroof already on this model. i called 6 places and they told me (besides from how many they had already repaired) the holder on the sunroof rail is broken so the whole rail assy needs to be replaced. imagine if i was on a freeway going 65+ and if this would have happend and this HUGE pano sunroof flew out from my car... this is very big safety issue and that probably why 2017 (same pano sunroof) was on a recall.
