I WAS DRIVING HOME AFTER WORK DURING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC ONE AFTERNOON AND ALL OF A SUDDEN I HEARD A LOUD BANG I PULLED OVER TO SEE IF A ROCK OR ROAD DEBRIS HAD HIT MY CAR. I COULD NOT FIND ANY SIGNS OF IMPACT. LATER ON I NOTICED THAT THE PANORAMIC ROOF SECTION BETWEEN THE WINDSHIELD AND SUNROOF HAD SHATTERED THERE ARE NO SIGNS OF IMPACT NO ROCK CHIPS, NOTHING.
No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
