2016 NISSAN MURANO Visibilitywiper Problems

Car hood design reflects sunlight directly into drivers eyes impairing vision frequently while driving posing a safety risk including collision with another vehicle or pedestrian etc. The area in question is a three or 4 inch strip running from left to right on the car hood close says to the driver

MURANO WAS TRAVELING APPROX 40 MPH DOWN THE ROAD WHEN THE SUNROOF SHATTERED. I HAVE A DASH CAM VIDEO OF THE INCIDENT. YOU CAN SEE IN THE VIDEO THERE WASN'T A CAR IN FRONT OR TO THE SIDE TO CLAIM A ROCK CAUSED THIS. DEALERSHIP WOULD NOT REPLACE UNDER WARRANTY CAR IS LESS THAN A YEAR OLD WHEN PURCHASED.

UNDER CERTAIN LIGHTING CONDITIONS FROM THE SUN, A STRONG GLARE CAN APPEAR AND COME THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD AND INTO THE DRIVER'S AND/OR PASSENGER'S EYESIGHT. THIS IS CAUSED BY THE DESIGN OF THE HOOD AND WHERE IT DIPS DOWN NEAR THE FRONT EDGE OF THE WINDSHIELD. THERE IS ABOUT A 5" WIDE AREA THAT SPANS THE WITH OF THE HOOD, AROUND THE LOWER SECTION OF THE WINDSHIELD. I HAVE READ OF OTHERS HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE AND THE LIGHT CAN BE 'BLINDING' AT TIMES LIKE THE LIGHT REFLECTING OFF A MIRROR ON A BRIGHT SUNNY DAY. FOR SAFETY REASONS, I HAVE DECIDED TO COAT THIS AREA OF THE HOOD WITH EITHER A MATTE FINISHED VINYL OR A MATTE FINISHED PLASTI-DIP SPRAY. I AM HOPING THIS WILL ALLEVIATE/ELIMINATE THE DANGERS OF THIS GLARE THAT CAN HAPPEN. ** TO NOTE, I HAVE READ OF OTHERS EXPRESSING THEIR CONCERNS WITH THIS ISSUE ON AUTOMOTIVE...

WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE AT 70 MPH, FRONT PASSENGER DOOR WINDOW SUDDENLY AND UNEXPECTEDLY SHATTERED INTO THOUSANDS OF PIECES FALLING ONTO PASSENGER, EXTERIOR, AND BLOWING AROUND INTERIOR OF VEHICLE. TO BEST OF OUR KNOWLEDGE NOTHING HIT THE WINDOW, NO CAR WAS ON EITHER SIDE OF US. PIECES OF GLASS CUT PASSENGER, BUT LUCKILY NONE GOT INTO EYES OF PASSENGER OR DRIVER. THIS CAUSED DRIVER TO SWERVE , BUT RECOVERED CONTROL. SMALL PIECES OF GLASS IN DRIVER'S HAIR ETC. HAD TO DRIVE 350 MILES HOME IN COLD WEATHER . TOOK VEHICLE TO A DEALER [ TRAVELLING , SO NOT SELLING DEALER]. DEALER NOTIFIED MANUFACTURER OF PROBLEM AND REPORT OF INCIDENT. MANUFACTURER RESPONDED THAT SINCE ALL PIECES OF GLASS COULD NOT BE RECOVERED, THEY COULD NOT REASSEMBLE ENTIRE WINDOW, THEREFOR IMPOSSIBLE TO TEST GLASS FOR DEFECTS. YET THERE WAS LARGE AMOUNT OF GLASS INSIDE OF VEHICLE. OWNER STATED THAT BY THAT REASONING...

SUNROOF EXPLODED WHILE DRIVING. NO OBJECTS FELL ONTO THE CAR. WE HAD NO IDEA WHAT THE LOUD BANG/EXPLODING SOUND WAS UNTIL WE WERE ABLE TO SAFELY PULL OFF THE ROAD AND EVALUATE. THE HOLE WAS NOT INWARD, LIKE SOMETHING FELL INTO IT, BUT THE GLASS WAS PUSHED UPWARDS. WE WERE ON A 4-LANE STRAIGHTAWAY GOING MAYBE 35 OR 40 MPH AND NOT UNDER ANY BRIDGES, TREES, ETC. NO VEHICLES AROUND US, ETC. IT WAS ABOUT 8:30PM IN JULY IN SOUTH CAROLINA. THE NOISE WAS VERY LOUD AND VERY STARTLING!
