Description of the problem | Have a 2007 lexus is250. Was on a freeway yesterday and suddenly heard this loud pop and thought something exploded or landed on my roof. I saw debris coming off my roof thru my rearview mirror. I opened my sunroof shade and saw a huge hole right in the middle of my sunroof!! My sunroof just shattered! I thought something hit me but i looked around there were no bridges, overpass, nor cars close to me so this can't be rocks or other objects. *jb |
