| Description of the problem | I was driving to colorado from texas going north on highway 285 about 15 miles out of clines corners when my moon roof just exploded. Glass went everywhere and i quickly swerved off the road. There were no cars around that would have been capable of throwing up debris of any kind. I have subsequently done research to find that it is almost impossible for rocks or debris to break a moon roof. This seems to be a semi-common problem however i am struggling at the moment to get mercedes to cover the repairs. |
