Description of the problem	Car was being driven at approximately 60 mph on the courtney campbell causeway highway, on a straightaway, that connects clearwater to tampa, florida. Suddenly the (closed) sunroof spontaneously exploded, causing a very loud noise and shattered glass to fall down into the passenger compartment. My wife, who was driving managed to maintain control of the car and pull to the side of the road. Given the car's speed and surrounding traffic (morning rush hour) it is unbelievable that the sunroof explosion did not cause an accident. The police were called and arrived on scene. No police report was filed, as there was no accident and no injury. The car was taken to mercedes benz of tampa bay. They took pictures and gave us a loaner car and said that they would make a determination as to who would be responsible for the repair. The incident occurred on 5/1/2019 at roughly 7:45 am. It was not until friday, 5/3/2019 that we heard from the service consultant, indicating that the car was out of warranty and therefore the repair was our responsibility. It took the dealership over 2. 5 days to make that determination ... Seems like that determination could have been made in about 5 minutes. Could it be that mercedes benz usa was involved in evaluating the resulting liability if they were to take responsibility? Given that there was no identifiable cause for the exploding sunroof, it is evident to me that it's a manufacturers defect that could easily have caused an accident and serious injury or death, and yet mercedes benz assumes no responsibility. A cost to repair/replace the sunroof glass was provided verbally (over $1,700. 00). This spontaneous explosion of a sunroof is apparently something that has occurred in the past with mercedes benz, as well as other car manufacturers. This could have a catastrophic outcome ... Any time it happens.
