I noticed that the windshield is delaminating. I did a search on the internet to see if anyone else was having this issue and many other Alfa Romeo owners did notice that around the windshield you can see bubbles. Took the car to the dealership and they said it was not covered by warranty. I decided to go to their parking lot to check other client cars and sure enough i found other Alfa with the same problem. I think this could be a very dangerous problem for drivers. I'm afraid this issue will continue to get worst. Thank you

Around 715p, today, May 29, my wife was driving the Alfa Romeo Giulia, and we pulled into our driveway. I was in the passenger seat and had my right elbow resting on the window sill (the window was fully open) and my palm was resting against the window frame. My wife pressed the automatic window up button as she was turning off the car. As the window started up, my forearm was trapped between the sill and the window frame. the pain was extremely intense, particularly from where the window kept trying to close. I yelled at my wife several times to hit the window down button. I could not get my arm out. Finally, I was able to pull my arm out scraping the skin. I feel that, if there had been soft tissue such as a baby's neck where my arm was, the tissue would have been crushed. After I pulled my arm out, the window did not continue to raise.

I was driving at highway speed when the glass sunroof exploded without warning. It had been functioning as expected prior to this. Some glass entered the vehicle, but there were no injuries. The vehicle is available for inspection and is scheduled to be inspected by an insurance rep. It has already been inspected by a dealer representative, who claimed damage was caused by debris striking the vehicle, however I have DASH CAM VIDEO that contradicts this version of events.( I will forward video upon request. ) Manufacturer has denied warranty coverage for repair which includes paint damage from broken glass.
