While driving 65mph on the nj turnpike southbound by exit 2, the hood on our 2006 b9 tribeca flew open, shattered my windshield, dented my roof and blocked my vision. It was amazing that I was able to keep the car straight and move from the left lane to the right shoulder without crashing. My wife helped navigate us off the road. We were over 2 hrs into our trip. This is clearly a failure of the hood latch mechanism. I closed the hood the best I could and drove 11 miles to nearest subaru dealer. Because we were on a family vacation my kids were shaken up. We had to rent a car to continue trip. Waiting to hear back from subaru and from insurance company. Latch was ripped from chassis, hinges were ripped from chassis, windshield was shattered, roof dented, hood dented, interior damage - mirror, lights.
