Roof/windshield part flew off at the highway
 

Hi,
I just came home from work, and at the highway on my way home, a roof/windshield part flew off at approx. 90 mph. It's the first time i experience something like this, never heard about this issue before.

I turned around and found the part - in a thousand pieces. So my questions to you professionals:

1. Have you ever experienced something like this, is this a common problem on the 370Z?
3. Should this be fixed through some kind of warranty?
2. If this is not a warranty-question - do you know where i can buy this part? I live in Sweden and the market for stock 370Z-parts isn't especially big here.

Here's a pic of the part missing. Thanks.

wow. that should definitely not fly off. have you ever removed it? if not, i would definitely bring it into the dealership. maaaaybe they might be able to do something for you. i doubt it, but its worth a try. in any case, here is the part you need:

2015 Nissan 370Z Coupe OEM Parts - HANLEES HILLTOP NISSAN

its $300 USD for one.

Whoa. :eek:

did you recently get a new windshield??? I bet someone forgot to secure it on all the way

^^^ This. There are screws under the rubber that help secure the trim. There is no way that piece should fly off with those screws in place.

Holly molly.

I'm with the other posters, DAMN!!!

Wtf, that's not right...

Thanks for your answers.

I don't know if the windshield has been replaced recently, I just bought it a couple of months ago. Everything else seems to be in really good condition so this was the last thing I thought could fail.

The most annoying thing in this story is that when this part fell off, it also scratched and dented the side of the car. My Z was 100% free from dents and scratches before this happened... Aaargh!

Yep I will visit my local Nissan dealership on Monday to see what the can do for me. I just hope this will open your eyes to make sure it doesn't happen to you ;)

Again, thanks.

I am going to duct tape this thing at the base of the hood now.

Reminds me of MINI's doing that yrs ago. :icon17:

Your dealer sells prepainted ones. GL! :tup:

Really? They're painted already? :O

Yes

Well that's great news, thanks a lot!

:wtf2:

Sorry that some idiot caused that to happen to your new ride. I have a spare panel, but it's not much help being in the US, painted Monterey Blue, and for the driver side. GL getting everything sorted out :tiphat:
