2019 Kia Sorento Wipers & Visibility Problems

Today, while driving on the road, the sun roof of the vehicle just exploded. Nothing was thrown into it nor was it caused by an object. It sounded as loud as a gun shot, and and it exploded into many pieces of glass.

Driving eastbound on I-66 east of cartharpin road, my sorento's sunroof exploded. The traffic was light at mid-morning, no construction in the area, smooth pavement, I was going about 65 MPH. Exploding sound, I thought it was a blowout.

My backup camera had a safety recall issued previously. In March of 2024 I received a letter from Kia notifying me of the recall related to this issue, and offered a remedy. I took the car in for inspection, but it was working at the time.

During use wipers at times will random stop in up position on windshield. Intermittent problem will start working again after toggling wiper switch.

Within on week of purchasing my new kia sorento, I experienced a windshield crack that spread quickly across the windshield within 24 hours. The windshield should be built better. I've never had such an issue with other makes from previous cars.

The rear camera picture has become foggy and I can't see what is behind me. There is a NHTSA campaign id 23v639000 for this problem. It covers the 2019 kia sorento (which is my vehicle) but kia says my particular VIN number is not included in the recall.
