Sunroof, Moonroof & Panoramic Glass Replacement – SafeRide Auto Glass
Understanding Sunroofs, Moonroofs & Panoramic Glass
Sunroof
A sunroof is a solid, opaque panel of glass or metal that slides open to allow fresh air or light into the cabin. Some sunroofs are manually operated, while others are power-operated.
Moonroof
A moonroof is a type of sunroof, but with one key difference: it’s typically made of tinted glass that allows light to enter even when it’s closed. Moonroofs are often powered and may tilt open or slide back, offering a sunroof experience with an added layer of protection against the elements.
Panoramic Glass
A panoramic glass roof extends over a much larger portion of the vehicle’s roof, often spanning the entire front and back seat area. This feature offers an expansive view of the sky and can either be a fixed panel or include a retractable section. Panoramic roofs are often installed in SUVs and luxury vehicles for a more open, airy feel.
Common Issues with Sunroofs, Moonroofs & Panoramic Glass
Sunroof Leak Repair: Clogged Drainage Channels

How to Fix a Leaking Sunroof
Inspection
Our experienced technicians will perform a thorough inspection of your sunroof, moonroof, or panoramic roof to identify any signs of damage, misalignment, or blockages in the drainage system.
Cleaning & Unclogging
If clogged drainage channels are the source of the leak, we will carefully clean and clear the channels, removing any debris that may have caused the blockage. This is an essential step in preventing water from seeping into the cabin.
Seal Replacement
In some cases, the rubber seals around the sunroof may become worn or damaged over time, leading to leaks. We will inspect the seals and replace them if necessary to ensure a proper seal and prevent further leaks.
Glass Replacement (if needed)
If the glass on your sunroof, moonroof, or panoramic roof is cracked or damaged, we’ll replace it with high-quality OEM-equivalent (OEE) glass to restore the roof’s functionality and aesthetic.
