I'm writing to inform you that the sunroof exploded I was driving back from seattle, wa to bellevue, wa today after dropping off a friend. I was somewhere on I-90 eastbound in between w mercer way and the I-405 interchange when I heard a loud sound above my head that sounded like an explosion on the roof of my car. Not wanting to stop on the freeway, I came home and stopped the car. After getting out, I noticed that the sunroof on the glass was shattered and there was a big hole in it. Bits of broken glass all over the top of the sliding interior cover on the sunroof. Luckily the cover was closed or the glass would have fallen on me as I was driving. I was very tired after my trip, so I went to sleep and took photos in the evening. I have tried my best to show how the glass has exploded upward from the roof of the car. This shows that it was not due to a stone or other projectile landing on the sunroof, as that would have LED to the glass being pushed in near the center of the impact. After doing a little research on the internet, I noticed that there were other reports of sunroofs exploding spontaneously. I saw that hyundai and kia automobiles had many reports of this, and decided to report this to you. I have attached a picture of the damage and shared more pictures here: https://1drv.ms/f/s!aqd1r2wkhcn6ikunuvi3nvnrmwnghw

A car without an occupant was sitting two car spaces from the corner,my car had struck this car. I got out of my car and saw my front right tire laying flat on the ground and my right fender was smashed. The police and aaa were called. When the aaa driver came he stated that my axle was bent. My air bag did not implod.the police came and no summons was issued. I was given a copy ot the police report that stated that the event was a non-reportable incident >the car was towed to a collision center said that the axle was bent.they ordered another axle and the one sent by the manufacture was damaged! .

On sunday, april 15, 2018, I was preparing ti make a right turn on merrimac ave in norfolk va, on my way to church,, when I heard a loud screeching noise and loss of steering. A car with no occupant was sitting to car spaces from the corner and my car struck the car. I got out of my car and saw my right front wheel laying on the ground and my right front fender was smashed. I called the police and aaa. When triple aaa arrived the driver said that my axle was bent. My air back did not implod. The police came and so summons was given, just a repotr that it was a non-reportable accident. My car has been in a collision shop since that day. The shop called and said there would be a delay because the axle the manufacture sent was damaged!! The shop had to order another axle . I went on line to determine if this model has had other report of axle and suspension defects and there was one report that was exactly the same as mine. Is it possible that this model may be a defected ? I did not take any pictures I had lost my cell phone

When I try to close the sunroof it will not close. I have to try it 3 to 4 times until it finally closes.
