My sun roof glass blew up while traveling on XXX in [XXX]. It sounded like a gunshot. I thought I blew a tire. Upon pulling over on the shoulder I discovered my Sun Roof had exploded.

The vehicle suffered a sudden "Loss of Motive Power" and stalled completely on a public road. The vehicle was towed immediately and is currently inspection upon request. [Safety Risks Experienced] The vehicle suffered a catastrophic power failure and stalled suddenly in the middle of a public road. This created an immediate hazard for a severe rear-end collision.

This recall notice (26V-562) is the third time that Jeep has provided such a notice for precisely the same problem. On two previous occasions (24V-413 and 26V-051), the car was returned to the dealer and work was performed. Although Jeep appears to be following the guidelines for discovery and communication of a safety defect, the conclusion here is that the subject defect occurred in the design phase or in the assembly process at the factory, and, despite two recalls and the passage of at least four years, the problem has not been resolved on a reasonably timely basis. The traveling public remains at risk.
