I was driving on a highway posted speed limit 75mph on a clear day with no precipitation and without cause, the panoramic sunroof above my head imploded with glass shattering down upon my head. I did not hit anything and nothing hit me. No rocks, no debris, no outside force caused this. The panoramic sunroof showed a crack around the seal where it meets the body of the car and it imploded and cracked (shattered) inward from this cracking.

While driving down the highway at the speed limit in our town on a clear evening with no weather, the sunroof of our 2023 Toyota RAV 4 exploded. There was a loud bang and it shattered as if the glass had been under significant stress or pressure. The glass bowed up in the middle and a section the size of a small saucer dropped out. There was a rigged break along the front edge of the sun roof. There were no bumps or holes in the road - it was smooth. There were no other vehicles nearby - no one threw a rock at our car. The noise was so loud that it was disruptive and shocking and thankfully I was not in heavy traffic or an accident might have occurred. I researched the web and found numerous instances of this sunroof explosion occurring. Please get Toyota to fix this before someone is serious injured.

The moonroof on this vehicle shattered without warning as I was driving on the freeway. It sounded like a loud boom and when i looked up the tempered glass was falling on me and inside my 2023 Rav4. This is a huge safety issue and im not only concerned about my safety but how much glass is in my car - I take my kids to school in this car. Im going to take it to the dealership today to have them repair it - this should br a warrantied item but I have read there are multiple issues in other Rav4's.

Have had the vehicle three weeks and only drive on paved roadways. Visible chip cracked instantly during drive. Windshield seems weaker than our 2 4Runners and VW. I-??ve never seen a crack instantly occur without a large rock or hail.
