Consumer Description

While driving on the freeway the sun roof "exploded" shattering glass out onto the highway. The noise was loud and frightening. Upon pulling over I observed most of the sunroof was gone with fragments of glass remaining along the edges of the roof. I believe this to be a major safety issue. If the ceiling cover had been open, the passenger in the rear seat could have been seriously injured. No doubt flying glass is a danger to any cars following. The vehicle was inspected by the Lexus dealer who declined to cover the damage under warranty. My insurance (CSAA) agreed to pay the cost of replacement. The glass shop which did the work indicated this is a manufacturing defect and indicated they replace 5-6 sun roofs a week.
