“WE WERE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND ALL OF THE SUDDEN WE HEARD A LOUD CRASHING SOUND ABOVE OUR HEADS. WE PULLED OVER AND DISCOVERED THE SUNROOF HAD EXPLODED. THERE WAS NOT ANY INCLEMENT WEATHER NOR WAS THERE A OBJECT THAT HIT IT. IT EXPLODED AND SHATTERED FROM THE MIDDLE. AFTER RESEARCHING ON THE INTERNET, THIS HAS HAPPENED TO SEVERAL HONDA OWNERS, DIFFERENT MAKES AND MODELS. WHEN CONTACTING HONDA THEY SAID THERE WAS NO RECALL. ALTHOUGH SOME DEALERSHIPS REPLACED THE SUNROOF FOR FREE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE IF GLASS EXPLODES ABOVE YOUR HEAD WHILE DRIVING. IT'S ALSO NOT AN INSURANCE ISSUE.
