My 2014 Honda CRV 's entire sunroof glass shattered while parked in the sun. You can see from the images I've attached below that was no impact or other cause Please let me know what steps I can take to have the Honda dealership service department repair and address this issue. As of now, the shattered glass has not fallen into the car but I'm scared that it will anytime. I can feel the sharp edges of the glass as I run my finger on the glass. Thank you for your assistance, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

What 2014 Honda CR-V owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
The heat on the driver side blows cold air. The windshield on winter does not defrost completely due to cold air on that side it is the heater core that is blocked for the driver side. Passenger side has no issue with heat. I’ve been informed that this is a heater core issue and needs to be flushed and have build up removed on heater core. My vehicle has only 40,000 miles.
When it gets cold the windshield washer system freezes and no fluid will come out. I have used fluid certified to -32C and other additives and nothing helps. This seems to be a common problem on CRV of this year and others. Driving at highway speeds and suddenly getting a dirty window from splash back and then not being able to clean it and loose forward visibility is very dangerous.
Driver side 's air vent heat vent is not working properly. During winter, the windshield is not fully warm and hard to do defrost. According to Honda, they recognized the issue of heator core and had issued a service bulletin about the issues of heater core problem to remove clogging. It should be recalled to fix the issue rather than making the owner replacing the expensive part. Thank you.
Windshield defroster does not work when first starting vehicle and when car idling. Dangerous because no visibility in cold conditions. Also, no heat on driver's side. Honda released service bulletin 14-063 so they know about this issue but have done nothing to repair. I just paid the dealer $618 to have the heater core flushed 3 times but there is no guarantee that the issue will not return. Very dangerous if driving in cold, icy conditions with low visibility and relying on defroster to function.
The heat doesn't work on the drivers side, just blows cold air while the passenger side is working perfectly!
Windshield washer came apart and failed to work. Washer motor will not run.allowing wiper blade s to damage to wind shield and back window. Both moving and stationary..no photo
Driving home from work on the freeway during a bad storm the defroster was blowing cold air on the windshield and it completely iced over. I could not see. Not to mention-- I was freezing cold. The passenger side was blowing heat, however all vents on the driver side were blowing cold air. I took my car to a honda dealer. Without even looking at it, they seemed to know exactly what was wrong and told me it was $330 to repair. I took it to an independent mechanic who charged me $172 to flush out the heater core. The mechanic also told me it would probably happen again.
Low heat from drivers side which causes the windshield not to defrost in the winter. Also cold inside car. Honda is aware of this and put out service bulletin #14-063. Says heater core partly clogs reducing heat to drivers side. This problem happens when car is stationary or in motion. This is a safety issue that should be recalled to fix the problem.
The defroster blows only cold air on the driver's side. It is still warm/hot on the passenger side. I live in the northeast and when you can't see out the windshield to drive it becomes a serious problem. During the winter the car is basically undriveable unless you let the entire interior warm up for 20-30 minutes, not exactly the fuel fuel efficiency I was looking for in a honda vehicle
