Renault Clio Leaking Sunroof - is this the case?

My daughter's car had smoke coming from the steering column & horn sounding whilst driving. All caused by a leaking sunroof. The airbag & horn need replacing (£281) and Renault Southmoor in Oxfordshire want £400 to redo the sunroof. What if the airbag had deployed whilst my daughter was driving ?

I'm informed that these glass sunroofs have a very poor reputation - but the safety angle is my greatest concern for other owners.

Thanks for the warning. They are infamous for leaking. I'll include these consequences in carbycar.
