I was driving on the highway heard what sound like an explosion. Almost wreck the vehicle from the noise it made. My children started to scream and cry. Then I heard glass flying off my car. Pulled over to see the sunroof was shattered into a millions pieces. I call Hyundai and was told the only sunroof recall they have is for the veloster which from what I was told was the same thing that happened to me. I have not received a call back from the dealership in regards to my concerns about this issue.
