Description of the problem | Exploding sunroof. I was driving to work early one morning and i heard a loud bang/pop then immediately heard air as if my sunroof was open. I very carefully opened my slider and saw that my sunroof had a huge hole in it. Thank goodness the glass was on the slider because had the slider been open- the glass would have shattered everywhere and hit my three children. I took it to honda and nothing was covered. I had to pay out of pocket to cover this when i did nothing to the car. It sounded like a gunshot. I was driving on the crosstown top deck in tampa florida with nothing around when i heard the loud bang. There was nothing that could have hit my car in that direction as honda said that was what had to have happened because they had never heard of this before. |
