Driving at highway speed on US101 N with no other vehicles in sight (5:50 AM), moonroof exploded outward with the sound of a gunshot. Moonroof glass and interior cover were closed. Inside temperature was 72 ?F, exterior temperature was 63 ?F and clear, and the sun had not yet crested the mountains (not a large temperature differential). No warning lamps or other problems prior to event. Remaining glass is domed outward.

On Friday 4/26/24 at about 8 PM, I pulled vehicle into garage and suddenly was aware that vehicle was crashing into shelving against the garage wall in front of its usual stopping place. I recall application of brakes and believe that I put into reverse in order to stop progression/acceleration. After it stopped, I was able to get out of the vehicle and describe the incident to my husband who came out from the house, having heard the crash. The hood and front parts of the car were damaged and it is currently in the collision shop. The shelving unit was destroyed. I am concerned that an unintended acceleration took place and do not know the mechanism.

Vehicle does not stop if one tire is going over a man hole cover, divit in the road, bump etc. It also skids forward when this happens and almost like jumps (as if anti-lock brakes where let loose and then pressed again) even if I am braking. This has been happening since the day I bought the car brand new off the lot. The traction control light also goes off. If I am going down a hill while this happens the car can jump forward multiple feet. This is a safety concern even if it is part of the hybrid system. Ive read that braking control is still available when this happens with a hybrid however, I lose braking power for a a second or two. Aka don't try to stop in Boston if there is any type of not-flat area of the road.. like a small bump or the car might JUMP forward and not stop while braking.

Remote Start Option, has been disabled by Dealer, reportedly in January of 2023. Car was purchased 3/10/23 from dealer and feature was working via a Remote Subscription App which was not Renewed on 9/23. As this App requires Internet Service and Cell Phone Coverage to Function, it was not reliable as Service is not available in rural areas. Also, the Owner Manuals do not describe that a Cell Phone App is required to Remote Start a car that is covered in Ice. During winter operation this feature may be required to warm the car to allow the doors and Electric Locks to operate during Ice Storms. Dealer requested to reinstate original Remote option and advised that a separate Remote costing $800 would be necessary. Dealer could not replicate the function as they have Wi-Fi, other than to confirm that the "App annual fee" is not current. No warning lights, or messages indicate that the Remote Start Function in not functioning. The car also dose not contain a Mechanical Lock operated by a key. Thus, during inclement weather, the car is less reliable if the doors freeze shut, as the car can not be started Remotely to thaw the Ice.

I was driving on a highway going around 45 mph. The sun/moon roof exploded. I wasn't under anything that could have fallen, no cars were around and I did not see anything in the air. It was sunny, 67 degrees with a breeze. This happened on Sunday so no confirmation or inspection has occurred. No warning lamps or messages appeared either before or after it exploded. I do know that Rav4 Prime's will display messages when things break including windows as I was rear-ended and the car was telling me the windows were broken. I called state patrol and they said they didn't need to come out, insurance was emailed but again, Sunday. I took photos and a video of the broken sunroof.
