Driving down the highway with all windows and sunroof closed, suddenly the sunroof burst into a million pieces raining down on me and my family. No impact caused the window to break, it appeared to burst from the inside out.

While driving in clear but cloudy conditions all windows closed, the moon roof was closed with its shade in the open position. For no identifiable reason the moon roof exploded with a loud bang and shattered, glass fell onto us, and in the back unocuppied seat. No warning at all. Dealer replace moon roof under warranty.

While driving in the clear, with all windows and sun roof closed, without any observed reason, the moon roof "exploded"in a loud bang/pop. Glass and glass fragments (some not so benign) rained down onto my hair, shirt, and pants, but mostly on the unoccupied rear seats where my children were five minutes ago. I still have the broken moon roof.
