4 Sun Roof problem of the 2007 Toyota Prius

Failure Date: 12/23/2010

I received a notice in the mail stating that I needed to have my aftermarket sunroof replaced due to the fact that the glass was poorly bonded to the frame. The manufacturer is webasto. After finally being able to get registered with webasto to have the repair take place, I was called and told that the parts would not be available for 4-7 weeks. It has been about two weeks, and I've had no updates or calls about my car. I think that 4-7 weeks is an unreasonable amount of time to have to wait for parts when you're in danger of having your sunroof fall on top of you.

6 Sun Roof problem of the 2010 Toyota Prius

Failure Date: 10/26/2009

On my way home from work I had the sunroof opened and a rock hit the deflector (a piece of tempered glass) and shattered it. I took it to the dealer and it was replaced at a cost of $907. 66. My concern is that this deflector and sunroof are unsafe. . . Being only tempered glass and not safety glass. The entire roof is made of this glass. I had assumed that the vehicle was safe. I fear that any falling object (like a stone or hail) poses a danger to my safety.
