Wife was driving the car when the roof linear fabric came out blocking her visibility from the rear. she could not see driving in the fast lane and with the baby in the back she panicked and pulled over. half of the roof linear came down blocking visibility to the rear and to the sides.
Wipers and wiper washer stopped working; no blown fuses involved; keyless entry system not working; remote control is now opening just the trunk but nothing else; radio backlight not working & power steering gets hard in cold weather or after driving on streets or roads with little maneuver. even after pump replacement.

We live in houston, texas area. one recent weekend, my wife and i were in my 2005 honda accord driving on an unoccupied road (light weekend traffic and no one within 1000 yards). my wife and i heard a huge explosion. we were in motion at the time and had no idea what happened to the car, but we knew it was powerful. immediately following the explosion, we heard a rush of air and when opening the sunroof cover (moved backwards), we were rained with broken glass particles (anywhere from 1mm to 1inch). the sunroof had exploded and the pieces were very dangerous. thank goodness for the cover that caught most of debris. had we had that open, it'd have been a catastrophic result. we do not feel anything contacted the roof and can only surmise that either a major pressure change occurred, a significant temp change occurred, or a structural change caused the sunroof to explode. the vehicle has not been in any significant accidents and is in excellent shape. the sunroof was functional prior to this incident, but used very little. i had to order another sunroof and cut myself seriously while trying to install this unit.
Without warning my sunroof exploded. there was no rock or any type of explanation. the sunroof unexpectedly exploded while i was driving my vehicle.
Takata recall -i am the owner of a beautiful 2005 honda accord ex. i am the original and only owner of my car. my car has this issue where it is burning excessive oil and engine siezes. (i mean really bad). i would get an oil change today and car would be out of oil within 2weeks...i've spent over 3000k dollars on trying to figure what the problem was and no mechanic could figure it out. i finally went to a special mechanic who finally did some research and figured out that this was a known issue by honda and have not yet done a recall for the issue. apparently based on articles from the honda/braman and takata sites (www.carcomplaints.com/honda/accord that after 80k miles the engine burns excessive oil in the engine. my car takes "full synthetic" so its gotten to be really expensive to own this car. to mention, the car has no leaks, all parts are in working order. i called and filed a complaint with the website since january 2017 and have not heard anything back. i would like to get this issue fixed and put my car back to normal. this issue is affecting other areas of the car like the radio, the back lights. i have to check and put oil in the car every couple days so that my engine doesnt seize.
Passenger side power window stopped working. mechanic i spoke to said the window regulator is broken and needs to be replaced. up until the day it broke, the window would get stuck and not roll back-up. this happened many times until it broke. the issue, in my opinion, didn't appear to be because of any weather. the car was never in an accident, nor was the passenger window ever tampered with or vandalized.
