 Description of the problemDriving down i-40 in oklahoma around 70-75 mph on 12/4/20 around 1:00 pm ct, out of nowhere, the sunroof exploded. Most of the glass went out and behind the car, but some glass ended up on driver and 2 passengers. There was not any other cars (in front or behind) at the time this occurred. Some glass did not come off and you can see by my pictures that the glass is curved up, showing the direction the glass exploded upwards and out of the car. The roof of the car, you can see the paint chips caused by the exploding glass going backwards, please see included photo. I was headed to arlington tx for a weekend trip, so i called a toyota dealer in arlington and told them what had happened. They said they have never seen this happen. They contacted their toyota representative and they said they have not seen an exploding sunroof before and that it had to be a rock hitting the sunroof. This dealer did get a sunroof delivered on the next day and was able to install on saturday 12/5/20. Toyota did not believe this was defective sunroof, but i do believe something was defective, because there was not any vehicle in front of me at the time this happened and i do not recall a rock hitting the sunroof prior to the event. This seems odd that the sunroof would just suddenly explode and shatter upwards and out of the car. Please see attached pictures. Vandergriff was able to get in a sunroof and replace it, but it was at my expense. Parts and labor $1,121. 86
