Altima 4-cyl

  • 30,000 miles
When I was driving my Nissan Altima 2012 car on I-635 in dallas at 2 pm cst at around 65 mph speed, I heard huge explosion sound on top of my head. I turned on the hazard light and slowed down the car and pulled over to a shoulder and checked the car. Sunroof glass was exploded and I have seen a 4 inch diameter hole and scatter glass pieces; rest of the glass was also broken/cracked. There was no vehicle at the time the incident occurred and it was not due to the external forces, it was due to internal pressure between the glass and visor. I was so scared when the glass exploded but luckily escaped from the bodily injuries. The sunroof glass on the Nissan Altima 2012 is for sure defective product. Please investigate and save the lives of the drivers. I'm not expecting any financial compensation from Nissan or anybody. I don't want this to happen to anybody please investigate and save drivers.
