10 months after purchasing brand new vehicle from dealership, the windshield developed large crack for no apparent reason--no debris or collision. Need to replace due to inability to see out and possibility of further cracking/breaking. A class action lawsuit against this company is taking place for this very issue, yet no recall exists. I am forced to pay $500 out of pocket (deductible) in order to get this remedied. Dealership informed me that warranty does not cover this.

Driving down a road. No other vehicles on the road ahead of me nor coming from the opposite direction. There were no trees or structures overhead. The road had some dips, but nothing overly rough or upsetting. A crack appeared on the right side of the windshield and started to spread. There were no chips or other visible damage on the windshield previous to this incident. The crack as since spread and will have to be replaced.

I was driving at 35 MPH on a nicely paved road and my sunroof exploded. It sounded like a gun shot. There was a big whole in the roof mostly over the passenger seat. There was some glass on the seat and on the console and in the back seat. Most of the glass landed outside the car because the sun roof exploded from the inside out. The remaining glass was shattered upward. Because it was tempered glass, it totally shattered. This was very scary and could have caused injury or serious accident. Had I not being alone on a road going at slow speed, who knows what would have happened. Looking on the internet this seems to be a common issue.

We were driving on the highway and our sunroof spontaneously exploded and shattered everywhere. Nothing hit it, it happened out of nowhere. We luckily had the cover closed. If we didn't, my husband, two daughters and I would have been covered in shards of glass everywhere. There was absolutely nothing that caused the explosion, it just Spontaneously happened.
