Pop up windscreen on sunroof snapped off after 6 weeks of ownership! I think I only opened the sunroof about 3 times. Very poor quality material. Dealer will order a replacement and install under warranty, six weeks old and already 2 hrs at the service dept!!

Someone already reported that it flew off while driving!!! I checked mine and it looks secure.

As nice and loaded these vehicles are, this windscreen looks like it was put together with a Lego kit - quality of it is very inconsistent with the rest of the vehicle.

Those accordion like flaps on the sides of the glass are really flimsy and poorly fitting too! We should be grateful that unlike many cars with large glass roofs these days, we have a retractable shade which is opaque. Some have no shade or a uselss translucent one which lets a lot of sun in like some European brands.
