INSTEAD OF SNAPPING INTO PLACE AFTER USE, IT DANGLES DOWN ABOUT 2" IN FRONT OF MY FACE. I'M OVER 6' TALL AND THE DANGLING VISOR CAN BLOCK BY VIEW.

MY HONDA ACCORD 2 DOOR COUPE'S SUNROOF SHATTERED WITH NO EXPLANATION WHEN I WAS DRIVING IN A SMALL CITY HIGHWAY. AT FIRST, I THOUGHT IT WAS MY LARGE REAR WINDOW BUT WHEN I LOOKED IN MY REARVIEW MIRROR AND SAW SHARDS OF GLASS FLYING BEHIND ME I COME TO FIND OUT IT WAS MY SUNROOF. I DID NOT HAVE IT OPEN AND THERE WAS NO CAR OR TRUCK IN FRONT OF ME TO EXPLAIN THIS "EXPLODING SUNROOF". I WAS CONCERNED FOR THE SAFETY OF OTHERS APPROACHING BEHIND ME AND ALSO FOR MY SAFETY SO I PULLED OVER AND LEARNED THAT MY SUNROOF WAS SHATTERED. I HAD TO GET TO WORK SO I WAS NOT ABLE TO TAKE THE CAR TO THE DEALER. THIS WAS VERY SHOCKING AS I WAS DRIVING 65 MPH AND THE "EXPLOSION" COULD EASILY HAVE KILLED A DRIVER THAT MAY HAVE LESS "NERVES" OR HEALTH ISSUES THEN I, LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO CONTROL MY EMOTIONS AND PULL OVER SAFELY WITHOUT HURTING MYSELF OR ANYONE AS THERE WAS A CAR NEXT TO ME AND I HAD TO SLOW DOWN IN ORDER FOR THEM TO PASS BY IN FRONT OF ME. THIS IS A CONCERN FOR ME AS I UNDERSTAND THAT THE SUNROOF TEMPERED GLASS IS COMING THINNER NOW IN ORDER TO MAKE THE AUTOMOBILE LIGHTER. THIS DEFINITELY HAS TO BE ADDRESSED AS I BELIEVE THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS ITEM THAT ARE BEING PUT IN AUTOMOBILES AND COULD POSSIBLY ENDANGER THE PASSENGERS AND OTHERS NEAR AN "EXPLODING" SUNROOF AUTOMOBILE AS GLASS WAS "FLYING" OUT AND MAY HAVE HURT ANYONE CLOSE TO THE VEHICLE HAVING THIS UNFORTUNATE OCCURRENCE SUCH AS MINE. LUCKILY NO ONE WAS BEHIND ME AND EVEN IF SOMEONE WOULD HAVE BEEN, I HATE TO THINK "WHAT IF" THEIR WINDOWS WERE OPEN AND SHARDS OF GLASS FLYING OUT FROM A CAR WITH A SHATTERING SUNROOF HIT THEIR EYES OR ANY PASSENGER OR EVEN A PEDESTRIAN THAT MAY HAVE BEEN NEAR THE CAR AS THE WIND WAS ALSO VERY STRONG THAT MORNING THAT THIS HAPPENED TO ME. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED WITH ALL AUTOMOBILES WITH SUNROOFS. THOSE READING THIS SHOULD ALSO "GOOGLE" OR WATCH "YOUTUBES" ON EXPLODING SUNROOFS!!
