I am filing this complaint regarding the sunroof glass on my 2025 Honda CR-V, VIN [XXX]. On XXX, while I was driving on the interstate at highway speed, I heard a loud pop/combustion-like sound. I immediately pulled over and discovered that the sunroof glass had shattered and fallen inward into the vehicle. I did not see any object, rock, or debris strike the sunroof before it shattered. There was no known impact that I could identify. The glass appeared to fail suddenly while the vehicle was being driven. I am concerned because a sunroof unexpectedly shattering while traveling at highway speed could create a safety hazard for the driver and passengers and could cause the driver to become startled or lose control of the vehicle. The vehicle had approximately 27,875 miles at the time of the incident. The vehicle’s in-service date was XXX. I contacted Honda regarding the damage, but the warranty claim for the window/sunroof glass was denied. I am requesting that the federal safety agency document this incident and review whether there is a potential safety defect involving sunroof glass on 2025 Honda CR-V vehicles. I have photographs of the shattered sunroof and can provide additional documentation regarding the vehicle, Honda’s warranty determination, and the incident if requested. I am aware of other reports involving 2025 Honda CR-V sunroofs shattering unexpectedly, which is another reason I believe this incident should be documented and reviewed.

The sunroof/moonroof glass spontaneously shattered. At 245 in the afternoon at 65 miles an hour no other vehicles near it. The day was clear and the temperature was in the low 70s. Heard a bang and pulled over to discover the glass had shattered. There was flying glass had another vehicle been near they would be been pelted with broken glass. The potential for injury of the passenger of the vehicle had the shade not been closed. The fact that the glass was not there it was hard to dispute that it happened. The local dealership put it off as an insurance issue rather than dealing with it. Insurance is moving forward. I believe it was a factory defect an should be looked into as a recall. No warnings just broken glass.

On 02/03/2026 while driving on a flat smooth asphalt highway at 55 miles per hour our sunroof just exploded. We didn't see anything hitting us although we did meet a few oncoming cars and trucks, but none were close when this happened. Luckily we had the inside blind shut so we didn't get covered with glass chips. Neither my wife or myself ever remember opening the sunroof or the inside blind so we don't even know if the sunroof would move of if it was stuck. Called Honda dealership locally to see if there was a recall for this breakage, but they there was none and it would have to turned into our insurance. The new glass is ordered, but we have to keep our 2025 CRV garaged and only driven very short trips. It will take 8 days to get this repaired. We have 15,000 miles on our CRV and about 2/3 of the glass is missing.

I was driving on the highway when my sunroof suddenly shattered out of nowhere. There were no vehicles directly in front of or beside me, and the weather was clear. The sound was extremely loud, sounded like a gunshot and it happened completely out of nowhere. There was no visible impact from rocks or debris. Instead of a small crack, a large hole was left in the sunroof. This appears to have been a spontaneous glass failure and is very concerning from a safety standpoint.

While driving at 65-75mph down a highway the sunroof glass shattered outward spraying the hood of my vehicle with glass shards. I was fortunate my interior sunroof cover was closed but had it not been glass would have been all over me. Honda inspected and denied the warranty claim. I now have a claim open with a repair shop. They have preliminarily inspected it and it is just glass, nothing wrong with the track. Could have been weak glass.

Driving at 55 mph on a highway and the sunroof spontaneously shattered. No construction, no road work, nothing in my video shows anything kicked up by a car etc. have a front and rear view camera on the car. Nothing was over my car as well while driving. That is seen on the video as well. Believe this will be a future recall. I am not the only one who has experienced this. Honda did nothing for me. They said you have to make an insurance claim. I could've been seriously hurt had I not had the sun slide in the closed position

The sunroof completely shattered with no impact of an object while driving on the freeway. This but myself and my children at risk for harm had i had the sunroof visor open. Glass would have hit myself while driving and my baby while she was in the back seat. I am currently in the process of this being inspected. There were no warning signs or lights that came on.
