| Description of the problem | I was driving to work at around 7:10 in the morning traveling at 60mph when all of the sudden the panoramic sunroof exploded for no apparent reason. A shower of glass fell on me and all over my car damaging the seats and cutting my right arm and forehead. I managed to get to work with a bloody arm and front head and thank god i had no other cars close to me when it happened. |
