The sunroof of the vehicle spontaneously shattered while driver was driving on I-5 South in Orange County, California. Driver-??s safety was compromised due to the potential for glass to have entered the vehicle while vehicle was in motion. The safety of other motorists on the road was also compromised, as pieces of glass appear to have flown off the sunroof into traffic. The sudden shattering was also extremely loud and startling, which was also a safety hazard because driver could have panicked and lost control of vehicle. After calling to report the incident to Acura, owner was advised the vehicle-??s sunroof has not been recalled nor is it under an extended warranty, despite evidence of a class action lawsuit against American Honda Motor Co., Inc. for related incidents in 2015 to 2021 vehicles. Per the lawsuit, which is a case out of California, the alleged defect in 2015 to 2021 model year Honda and Acura vehicles, referred to in the complaint as the -??class vehicles, -?? puts drivers and their passengers in -??serious danger, -?? as the sunroof explosions can cause -??shards of glass to fly through their vehicles, sometimes while driving at high speeds, -?? and -??the loud explosion and flying glass distract drivers and create a hazard to the people in the Class Vehicles and those around them.-?? The complaint alleges that the sunroofs in Honda and Acura vehicles are made with tempered glass that, because of the pressure created during the tempering process, has been known to -??explode suddenly-?? if the outer layer is compromised. The lawsuit also claims Honda-??s use of thin tempered glass for its sunroofs is -??substandard, dangerous, and inadequate-?? given the material-??s propensity to shatter or explode.

The sunroof spontaneously shattered while driving the car. No other vehicles were around and no debris caused the sunroof to shatter. Glass blew in to oncoming traffic and into the car while it was being operated, which posed a risk to myself and other drivers. Upon further investigation, this is a know issue by Honda/Acura and a class action lawsuit has been file, yet the company is unwilling to make repairs to effected cars. There were no warnings etc prior to the sunroof shattering. The car was taken directly to the dealership for repairs and photos are available.

It is extremely difficult to see at night without having to use my bright lights. The low beams are useless and poses as a hazard to the driver and the driver of the approaching vehicles. I have replaced my headlights and I have purchased fog lights as an attempt to fix the problem but it still did not fix the problem. These additional costs were well over $500. I am requesting that Acura correct this problem before I or someone else gets hurt. [XXX], Owner, Phone number [XXX].

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request" I drive a 2015 Acura RDX. I was driving on I-5 south with no overpass above me at the time and my sunroof suddenly imploded. It sounded like a gun or bomb going off and I looked above to a hole in my sunroof and glass everywhere. It is available for inspection at Acura Bellevue. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? Yes, the sudden noise and glass breaking going 60 miles per hour on the freeway would have easily caused an accident. It was raining and nighttime as well. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? Insurance hasn't sent a rep out yet, but via pictures and research they are investigating. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? No, they will not take responsibility although there are multiple accounts of this happening on Hondas and Acuras, there is currently class action suit in court.

Put my car in park in driveway with the engine running, stepped out of my vehicle and it started moving forward, hitting the garage. The car hit the garage and I tried to push it backwards, it moved backward after hitting the garage and started rolling away from the garage. My baby was in the car, so I got in the open door of the car and attempted to move the gear shift out of P towards D, thinking this would help stop the car as I stepped on the brake pad. During this entire period, the car was making a grinding sound, which I assume was the brakes. The car finally stopped rolling and came to a stop as I stepped on the brake a second time. The driveway is on a downward slope so the car was gaining momentum as it bounced off the garage. There minor damage done to car but the garage door will need to be replaced since it is badly damaged.
