problem #2

Accord 4-cyl

  • 21,000 miles
My sunroof exploded while on the ramp to enter the highway. There were no cars around, no overpasses when I heard a loud explosion sound and then wind noise. Not knowing what happened I pulled over, looked around the car and went back inside and started driving but the wind noise got louder and when I opened the slider a little, I saw that the sunroof had shattered. I pulled over again and called my dealership and without even looking at the car the service person told me that a rock must of hit it. I told him that there was no cars or trucks around me and he said that it must of flew up from somewhere.

As I was driving down the highway at approximately 70mph, the glass in my sunroof burst. There was a loud pop, and then I could hear highway noise. There were absolutely no cars around me and nothing above me, and I had not gone under an overpass. Most of the sunroof glass was gone, and the remaining glass and seal had sunken down into the car and was in a concave shape like it had burst from the inside out.
