We heard a very loud gunshot noise on 2023-10-20 while traveling on the I40 during a weekend road trip. We immediately got off the upcoming exit to inspect the tires for a blowout and other vehicle issues, however no issues were seen. No 18 wheelers or construction vehicles were near us at the time of the event. Later on we kept hearing a rattling sound that was baffling. The shattered moonroof was discovered when the shade was slightly cracked when inspecting the culprit of the rattling noise. I immediately closed the cracked moonroof shade and checked the top of the vehicle to discover a huge hole in the moonroof. Thankfully the sunshade protected us from the shattered glass and no one was hurt. The vehicle was taken to the dealership upon returning home on 2023-10-23 for an inspection and they observed it appeared that the moonroof blew out (up position). The dealership will be covering the replacement of the moonroof under warranty.

Our sunroof exploded today (May 8, 2023) with no warning while sitting at a red light. Nothing hit the glass. Luckily the shade was pulled closed so no glass fell on us. It was a loud explosion. The car was taken to the dealer, Jenkins Hyundai in Leesburg FL.

Left home around 520am for work, within 1 mile sunroof exploded. It was approximately 30 degrees outside. I was fortunate because the cover was shut, so no glass hit me. Hyundai has replaced it at no cost. I was told there have been 36 instances and a service bulletin was put out.

The sunroof randomly exploded while on the interstate driving for 2 mins. There was no other cars or trucks around me driving when this incident occurred. Driving 60 mph. Sounded like a gunshot.

The sunroof of my Hyundai palisade Calligraphy shattered on its own on the very second day of owning it. This seems to be a common issue with sunroof on Hyundai palisade.
