Action 9′s Jason Stoogenke started looking into complaints about this in 2018. He even went to West Virginia to speak with a woman who told him she had been driving through South Carolina when her sunroof exploded.
The federal safety agency, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, counted more than 4,000 complaints involving 13 car companies about the issue.
