Sunroof Flew Off??

I was driving today going about 80 and my sunroof glass just Flew off my car and into oncoming traffic??? has anyone every heard about this? I just heard a pop then heard people swearving behind me. I dont know how this shit happened but wtf? the only thing left is my weather stripping....and the worst is it bent my soiler on the way down. Anyone please

Sure if youd don't check the screws that hold it in it could fly off when it was open. If I had one I'd make checking the tightness of the screw a part of regular maintance. Unless you're talking about a moonroof (i believe that's what they're refered to but could be wrong) the ones that are stationary and don't pop up, then the seal must have broke loose which i would consider a freak accident.

It was on my 93 civic ex and It was sealed no clue on how it just blew off but my luck it was pouring and drenched my tenzo R seats. and its sunday so no junk yards are open and it also riped my frame out looks like some monster came and ripped the top of my car off.

Holy shit man.. yeah sounds like a freak accident, just go to a junkyard tomorrow and get a new assembly for ~$200.

oh man, this is too weird because the EXACT same thing happend to me last sunday. I was going down a major road here in tampa, and i was going around 70'ish, I go to open up my sunroof and throw back the sunshade block and my freakin glass part to the sunroof was completely gone, and it's the rainy season here in florida too so it rains everyday and i had to secure a black garbage bag on top of my car and tape it down with duct tape. haha, this is just beyond ghetto.

Main road in tampa doing 70 huh? Would that be veterans? Dale mabry? 275? I4? Hillsborough? What part in tampa do you live in?

haha im gonna be checken my screws all the time now!!!

Hmmmmm. Maybe that's why Honda changed the design of where the glass goes when you open the sunroof.
I'm just glad that mine retracts under the roof when it's open.

yeah and the thing that sucks is no junk yards got one for me and I gotta order it from honda for 500. im just gonna plug it with CF or ragtop it i dont want this crap to happen again.

it was on 60 and it's not actually in tampa it's in brandon =P I just say tampa most of the time because nobody know what the hell i'm talking about when i say brandon.

this happened to me with my asc sunroof.. but it was my own fault. i had loosened two front nuts and never fully tightened them back down. i was going 45 but down a hill.. luckily no one was behind me

yeah right you are all just a bunch of fast and the furious paul walker in his supra wanna bes throwing your sunroofs off like that :naughty: :loser:

Those few precious pounds could make a world of difference, especially when you live your life a quarter mile at a time. :lol: That line is so lame, even by Hollywood standards. I need to go shower, i feel dirty just typing that out.

I think it would suck if you saw a sunroof flying at you goin 80 mph. It would scare the shit outta me! :)

There was a product recall for Webasto sunroofs because there is a known issue with the sunroof glass blowing off/flying away. The dealer can replace the sunroof for free if it meets the following criteria: https://sunroofcheck.com.au/faqs.php

Happened to me today and it scared the crap out of me. I was on a major roadway, but we were slowing down for some reason and the person behind me was not hit. Im still a bit in shock, I had no idea that was even a possibility.
