Description of the problem	I drove down from il to wi with my fiat pop 500 2012 on highway 39 and all of the sudden about an hour away to my destination, my sunroof spontaneously exploded (boom!) along with loud noise. I ducked down and all the sunroof glasses was shattered and fell off onto my head, my laps and mostly went falling down on the front of passenger seat. This was happening on a clear summer sunny day, on friday, june 28th of 2019. There's no foreign objects, there's not a lot (congested) of traffics, there's no any semi trucks around me nor the bad weather or any distractions whatsoever. It was around 6:10 pm local time and it is about an hour away from my final destination to madison, wi. The weather was around 81 - 79 degrees fahrenheit, very clear sky, no rain, no wet road. Nice and dry summer time to drive, normal breeze. Sky are all clear and sunny. Weather: 8 humidity: 62%, barometer: 30. 06 hg, and se winds condition: 6. 214 mph. As a women who completely doesn't know anything about cars except took my car to the auto shop for regular oil change, this was very scary to me - completely relying on my safety with the car that i own and i drive everyday, and this accident definitely made me realized that fiat pop 500 it is not a safe to be drive for anyone period. The sunroof that all of the sudden spontaneously exploded with no valid reason whatsoever and there's no warning from fiat that could be part of their defect in this type of car it's very dangerous for anybody event to consider purchase this type of car. The glass that shattered and was falling down could sliced anyone heads in a half. It is very dangerous vehicle to drive for anybody or for everyone and this sunroof should be a recall and the consumer have a right to be inform about this. This sunroof is a safety issue. Be aware!
