Driving on the highway at 60mph, my sunroof exploded very unexpectedly and very loudly. It shattered along the front and sides but not anywhere at the center. Sunroof was closed and had only been used 1 time in the month I had the vehicle. Nothing hit me as no vehicles were anywhere near. The dealership managment is saying it had to be caused externally yet their own technicians said it was defective.

I PURCHASED MY CAR IN JAN. 2020. ON JUNE 21, 2020, I AWOKE TO MY ALARM GOING OFF. I TRIED TO USE MY KEY FOB TO TURN THAT ALARM OFF AND IT DID. NOT WORK. THE ALARM STOPPED AND I HAD TO USE THE HARD KEY TO ENTER MY CAR. THE CAR WOULD NOT START AND I HAD TO GET A JUMP FROM AAA. THE CAR WAS NEW WITH LESS THAN 3000 MILES ON IT. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER TO FOR A DIAGNOSTIC AND THEY KEPT IT FOR 5 DAYS. THEY HAD TO REPLACE THE BCM. THE BCM WAS LISTED AS PROBLEM IN PRIOR YEAR VERSIONS OF THIS VEHICLE. THIS APPEARS TO BE A CONTINUING PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND WAS NOT BEING DISTURBED WHEN THE ALARM WENT OFF.

A corroded faulty ground strap under the car, which is connected to the transmission caused the engine wiring harness to overload a smaller ground wire in the wheel well, then continued to melt other sections of the main engine wiring harness when trying to start the car. This is only a $200 part, but caused $6k+ of damages calling for a labor intensive job of replacing the entire engine wiring harness. The manufacturer does not provide any information on this to the owner as a maintenance issue or something to keep an eye on to prevent this issue. It's obviously a defect.
