1 Carrier/rack problem

Failure Date: 12/24/2019

On christmas eve 2019 I left church service at 8:30 p. M. My 3 small boys and I had been in our 2013 Ford Expedition el about 10 minutes. It was 28 degrees out. We had just passed through a small town and were on a highway by ourselves when I thought I heard a scratchy speaker and turned my radio down. Within a minute there was a loud explosion. I was driving between 50 and 55 mph driving straight forward on a smooth highway. One of my sons screamed and asked if we blew a tire which I quickly ruled out because air pressure signals were fine and no pulling on my wheel. I figured a deer ran into our vehicle because it happens here in the midwest. After a few more minutes of driving I heard tiny pieces of glass flying off the top of the vehicle and then it hit me that the sunroof exploded. I remember reading the article in my consumer reports about this happening across the us but never in a million years thought it would happen to my older vehicle. When I checked it over at home the glass had actually bubbled up an area in the center and blew that area out. It was about a 10" by 5" area that blew out and the rest all cracked but didnt shatter. I ended up getting a recycled piece of glass from a salvage yard and had a glass place replace it for a total of $200 - when I was quoted $1,000 - 1,200 to replace the whole glass through Ford and a new seal.
