Honda Cr-v Visibility Sun Roof Assembly Safety Report | Dec 21, 2012
Reported on Dec 21, 2012
| WHILE GOING NORTH ON I-35, 2 MILES SOUTH OF AUSTIN, TEXAS A VERY LOUD NOISE WAS FELT AND HEARD. THE SUNROOF HAD CRACKED INTO THOUSANDS OF SMALL PIECES AND A LARGE HOLE FORMED AS I DROVE WITH GLASS FLYING BEHIND ME. THE HOLE IN THE CENTER OF THE SUNROOF HAD EDGES SLOPING UPWARDS INDICATING THE FORCE WENT OUT OF THE CAR BENDING THE GLASS OUTWARDS. THERE IS NO EVIDENCE ANY OBJECT HIT THE SUNROOF FROM THE OUTSIDE. THE OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE WAS 64F DEGREES. I BELIEVE THE FACTORY INSTALLED SUNROOF GLASS IS DEFECTIVE CAUSING A VERY UNSAFE DRIVING CONDITION. I HAVE PICTURES OF THE SUNROOF. *TR | |
