Description of the problem	While traveling on a highway entrance ramp, the glass of my moon roof "exploded" spontaneously. At the time of the incident (approximately 12:00 pm est), the temperature was around 30 degrees fahrenheit and there were no adverse weather conditions, i was traveling under no overpasses, and there were no vehicles in front of me. I noticed no objects striking my car before or at the time of the incident, my passengers and i only heard a noise that we agreed sounded like a gun shot coming from above the vehicle. Since i happened to have the sun shade closed over the moon roof, no glass entered the interior of the vehicle, but a significant amount of the moon roof (approximately 2/3) blew towards the back of my car and onto the highway ramp. Since i was traveling with my wife, mother, 5 year old daughter, and 2 year old son, this incident poses a significant safety hazard because if i hadn't had the sun shade closed, all passengers would have been exposed to flying debris from the blown out glass. I am confident that no objects struck my car to breach the moon roof, i strongly feel that this was a failure of the vehicle/component itself.
