- • WAS DRIVING ALONG THE HIGHWAY AND MY SUNROOF SUDDENLY EXPLODED AND GLASS STARTED FALLING INTO THE CAR. NO CARS WERE AROUND ME AND SUNROOF WAS CLOSED. WAS DRIVING AROUND 45-50MPH ON HIGHWAY 98.
- • MY CAR IS TRAMLINING. IN OTHER WORDS, MY CAR HAS THE TENDENCY TO FOLLOW IMPERFECTIONS IN THE ROAD AND ENDS UP YANKING THE STEERING WHEEL OUT OF MY HANDS WHENEVER THE FRONT TIRES FIND A RUT IN THE ROAD. THIS HAS CAUSED MY CAR TO DANGEROUSLY PULL TOWARDS ONCOMING TRAFFIC. ALSO, MY RADIO PRESET BUTTONS
