Description of the problem	While driving on highway 83 in pharr, tx, i heard a loud explosion suddenly and wind howling; i immediately set my hazards to alert the vehicles near me as i thought i was in a wreck. I looked up to discover that my panoramic sunroof had exploded and shards of glass were flying both behind my vehicle and inside my vehicle. I ended up with minor cuts and scrapes as a result. I called hyundai, but they stated that this vehicle was not likely part of an earlier recall in 2013 for shattering panoramic sunroofs. For the extent of damage done, there is no possible way i couldn't have heard a rock of that size hit my vehicle directly on my sunroof strong enough to smash through the layers of my sunroof and pop the frame out of place. Luckily, this didn't result in a collision, but this recall needs a second look at expansion- what happened is unacceptable. The dealership is in process of replacing the sunroof but i'm concerned the underlying problem is being missed.
