A few complaints as filed, shortened and with personal details removed. The first ones are among the most serious reports for this model year; the rest are typical.
The front moonroof exploded while I was driving on the highway. There was heavy traffic so I was not traveling at a high speed. There was no debris that hit the roof. Without warning, It shattered and the falling glass cut my hand. I had to navigate to the side of the road while falling glass was hitting my head and body. It was hard to see with the glass falling.
I have charged many phones in this car's wireless charging pad and they all get extremely hot. Fortunately I caught it early. When the phone was removed, it was too hot to touch. I believe there is a real risk of phones catching fire in this car. I've now discontinued use of the charger.
