MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING MY 1992 CIVIC EX 4 DR SEDAN ON INTERSTATE 95 NORTHBOUND ON 9/8/05. HE HAD THE A/C ON AND ALL WINDOWS AND MOONROOF CLOSED. HE HEARD A LOUD "POP" AND THEN HEARD WIND NOISE. A PASSING MOTORIST SIGNALED TO HIM TO LOOK UP, OPENED THE SUN SHADE, AND REALIZED THE ENTIRE GLASS MOONROOF WAS GONE!! THE CAR WAS PURCHASED BY ME BRAND NEW AND IS IN IMMACULATE MECHANICAL AND STRUCTURAL CONDITION. IT HAS NEVER BEEN INVOLVED IN AN AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT. I CONTACTED HONDA AND EXPLAINED WHAT HAPPENED. THEY TOLD ME TO TAKE IT TO THE NEAREST DEALER TO BE INSPECTED. I HAD NO PROBLEMS WHATSOEVER WITH THE MOONROOF. NO LEAKS, NO UNUSUAL NOISE, IT OPENED AND CLOSED WITHOUT HESITATION. THE CAR RECEIVED REGULAR MAINTENANCE. I AM GRATEFUL THAT NO ONE WAS BEHIND MY HUSBAND OR SOMEONE COULD HAVE EASILY BEEN KILLED. HONDA ACCEPTS NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS.
