problem #1

Feb 222013

Venza 6-cyl

  • 2,000 miles
Driving down interstate with moon roof/sun roof open, the moon roof/sun roof shattered into a gazillion pieces. There was no sound of a rock or other projectile hitting the moon roof/sun roof. It just rained glass down on us without warning. Luckily my husband was wearing a ball cap that protected his eyes, but it could have blinded someone and caused an accident. I cut stained glass so am familiar with how glass breaks. I believe the panoramic moon roof/sun roof is a design defect, which resulted in a stress fracture. I have pictures that clearly show both sides of the moon/sun roof tore simultaneously. All this from an alleged "rock". I don't think so.
