| Description of the problem | I was driving around 40 mph and i heard a noise like glass cracking and then a few seconds later, the moonroof exploded and fell on my head and down my back. It was raining so since i was closer to home than the dealership, i turned around and went back home. The glass broke up in such small pieces, my finger was cut, but no other injuries thank goodness.
