The middle panel of the panorama roof exploded spontaneously while I was driving at 50 mph on the highway. The car shook with the explosion. I pulled over to find a gaping hole in my roof and glass shards resting on the shade. This caused the shade to hammock down towards the driver and passenger seats making it unsafe to drive.

Is 3 complaints a lot? They were filed between 2024 and 2026, roughly 2 a year, which is about the same as the typical model in this dataset. We do not have sales figures for this model, so treat this as a rough volume, not a rate per car on the road. Popular, high-volume models naturally collect more complaints over time.
