2 Body problem of the 2013 Lexus GS350

Failure Date: 06/18/2019

My sunroof exploded while I was driving down a residential street. I was driving at a speed of 30mph. I was the only car on the street when I heard a loud pop; it sounded like a shotgun. Afterwards, I heard a cackling sound coming from the top of my car. As a made a complete stop at a red light, I moved my visor to my sunroof back and all I saw was shattered glass. I immediately closed the visor to my sunroof. It was the most frightening experience of my life. My sunroof exploded and now it's shattered to pieces. I made it home, but I cannot drive my car.
