There are 2 owner-reported body & structure complaints for the 2022 Toyota RAV4 Primein NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
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.
Day 2 of a road trip. the Moonroof exploded spontaneously. There were three dogs underneath, luckily they were not hurt. Driver felt the pressure in the car go up before the loud pop. there is a round hole in the middle and cracks going to the end.
