1 Carrier/rack problem

Failure Date: 10/06/2016

Driving, the car was in motion, straight northbound interstate 55 at 70 mph and suddenly I heard an aggressive loud explosion, similar to that of a shotgun, glass was crumbling all over me and the interior of the vehicle. The panoramic sunroof panel exploded into bits and pieces and a portion of the sunroof tracking/frame dangled on the driver side scratching the narrow piece of frame. No apparent reasoning or cause for the explosion. No vehicles on all sides of me , no rocks or any other objects found that could have caused the breakage. I was told by the Hyundai dealership my VIN number was not listed as a member of the recall group of 2012 Veloster's that had same complaints made of exploding sunroofs. I considered myself blessed to have not been caused bodily injuries by the explosion and blessed that my insurance allowed repair expenses to be covered under comprehensive insurance. Once it is repaired I will divert my focus on trading the vehicle in for a more reliable and safe vehicle with no sunroof feature to cause future costly challenges for me to have to submit a claim with my insurance.
