| Description of the problem | My brother was driving on the expressway at about 60mph. No other cars were on the road. There was a loud bang almost like a gun shot. He pulled over and saw the sunroof completely shattered. There were no rocks or anything found to indicate an object hitting the sunroof had caused the broken glass. The glass shattered out of nowhere. |
