It can also be heard as I enter my neighborhood, before I am even close to my home, and my neighbors have noticed it as well. The sound resembles something rubbing or g

The rear glass of the sunroof exploded while driving at highway speeds. The safety risk involved is that is sounded like a gunshot went off and the entire car got extremely loud, taking my attention off of the road, thank goodness the sunshade was closed and didn't shower me with glass. YES, the problem has been confirmed by multiple other owners online, and Toyota denies taking responsibility for its manufacturing defect putting all drivers at risk. It is being evaluated at by insurance. No war

There is no remedy available for the safety recall until sometime in the first quarter of 2026. This could be several months.
