Monday, January 30, at 7:25pm, I was driving my 2019 Nissan Pathfinder at 55mph and the sunroof exploded. The weather was clear, 60 degrees, no precipitation. There was a loud explosion then the sound of glass rained over the roof of the car. The interior shield was closed; therefore, glass did not enter the vehicle. We pulled over immediately to inspect the vehicle. The sunroof was identified as shattered with the glass shards in an upward position. We did not have cars around us. We were on an open road, no where near an overpass. There was nothing that could have fallen or hit the sunroof. Because the glass rained over the car and the glass was positioned upward, it is clear the sunroof exploded.
TRAVELING I-80 FROM YORK, NE TO LINCOLN, NE, ON JUNE 3, 2019, 11:47 A.M., APPROX. 2 MILES WEST OF HWY 15 EXIT, WE HEAR A LOUD EXPLOSION AND THOUGHT A TIRE OR SOMETHING HIT OUR PATHFINDER. LUCKY NO OTHER VEHICLES WERE AROUND US AND THE WEATHER WAS HOT WITH CLEAR SKYS. I PULLED INTO A DIVIDED PORTION OF THE INTERSTATE AND INSPECTED THE CAR AND FOUND EVERYTHING OK. STARTED DOWN THE ROAD AGAIN AND WE HEARD PIECES OF SOMETHING ROLLING OFF OUR ROOF. I INSPECTED THE REAR SUNROOF, FOUND IT OK AND THEN STARTED PULLING BACK THE FRONT COVER OF THE SUNROOF AND REALIZED THE GLASS HAS SHATTERED. I IMMEDIATELY CALL OUR SALESMAN AT NISSAN TO REPORT THE DAMAGE AND TO SEE IF IT WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. HE SAID IT WOULD HAVE TO BE LOOKED AT AND WE COULD HAVE A LOANER TO USE IN THE MEAN TIME.
