Description of the problem | My fiance was drivingdriving 55 down the i77 highway north getting ready to turn off the exit and she heard a loud bang. Next thing she knew she had glass all over her. The powered sunroof exploded!!!! The glass cut her hand in a few spot but thankfully she is ok and didnt wreck the vehicle and that our kids weren't in the car. My fiance called the police and said there was nothing they could do and my insurance has a 1000$$$ deductible. |
