problem #2

Tiguan 4-cyl

  • 34,000 miles
The sunroof glass exploded while we were driving down the freeway. We were showered with glass fragments including tiny shards. Some pin prick size injuries on hands and arms. We were cruising at 70mph on I-90 at the time of the event. It was about 65 degrees outside and we had one rear window down for air so internal temperature was about the same.
