Description of the problem	When driving at highway speed the sunroof exploded and sent glass flying into and around car. There was nothing nearby that could have hit and damaged the sunroof so violently, and the incident seems to be caused by the same manufacturer defect as 2012 hyundai models covered in the recall. The car is a 2013 turbo model though, so it is not covered by the recall. This could have easily have caused an accident if i wasn't aware of the problem in advance so i could understand what was happening and react accordingly. Hyundai will not acknowledge the problem since its outside of the initial warranty despite the fact that its consistent with the other sunroof recall. Other problems include having to have a clutch replaced at 45000 due to another manufacturer defect (car wouldnt accelerate in 1st or 2nd gear), and needing an engine replaced at 60000 for an unknown reason. I bought the car brand new (drove off the lot with 12 miles on odometer) and have had all maintenance, including oil changes, done by the hyundai dealership. So far the car is giving me more problems the longer i own it.
