2012 Toyota Highlander. Consumer stated the sunroof shattered while driving.

The webasto sunroof had a safety recall that I didn't respond to in time. The serial number is 6256887. The form said if I waited to long I would need to file a claim. . . I should have paid more attention to the fine print!.

While driving on highway the sunroof exploded and sent glass fragment everywhere. Fortunately the shade was pulled closed otherwise glass would have been blown into the driver and passenger compartment at 55 mph. Glass was completely distributed throughout the headliner and it had to be removed to ensure glass would not interfere with air bag operation or become a projectile if the air bag actuated. The sunroof is made of tempered glass and not safety glass. When it exploded, the glass was not held captive by the safety film. Only a two inch border of glass remained in the sun roof frame. This is a very significant safety oversight. If the sun roof shade had been open, the driver would have been hit with glass and an accident would likely have occurred.

Moon roof began making slightly funny sound on occasion, then was fine and stopped making noise, then very shortly after warranty was up it stopped opening and won't shut.

Driver's side sun visor on the 2002 Toyota Highlander will not stay up. It falls down on a regular basis ,and sometime falls down while driving, momentarily, obstructing my view of the road ahead. Dealerships quoted me a cost upwards of $600, parts only, to replace it, and I didn't and have never used the homelink feature, which apparently was largely responsible for the relatively high cost of repair.

Sun roof leaking even with sunroof completely closed. Seems to be no drain lines from drain holes in sunroof compartment. Water drains into car well on passenger well in front of car. Also have had wind noise coming from left area of car- thought it might be the roof rack. Dealership check out & could not find noise. They also removed left panel of car around windshield and wheel well to look for noise.
