| Description of the problem | The sunroof, in it's entirety flew off in the middle of the interstate. The sunroof was open, so we closed it and it began making a weird noise, so we began to re-open the roof, and the entire piece of glass flew off. We were on an interstate, going about 70mph, and have had no problems with the sunroof until it flew off. Thankfully, we did not see it effect any cars and landed in the middle of the interstate. |
