Description of the problem	I was driving, making a left hand turn from a stop light and then heard a very loud bang! The sunroof above me then shattered and fell all over me, the car, and outside. I pulled over to inspect the cause and see the damage. There wasn't a sign of why it happened (rock or anything of the sort), but i had shards of glass in the top of my head, back down the inside of my shirt, and the glass still hanging was flying off. Thankfully i had sunglasses on, or else something would have flown into my eyes. Actually have a scratch from the incident on my new prescription sunglasses now. I researched a possible issue or recall and came across a few postings with the exact same issue! I heard good and bad stories on how it was resolved, but its scary nonetheless. This happened today and am second guessing a sunroof, although i've always wanted one. If this is starting to become a known issue with a new model, i hope its treated with caution and swiftness. Please call or email me if you have any questions. Updated 08/15/12*lj
