| Description of the problem | I was driving on 02/13/2020, about to cross the arkansas/tennessee bridge when my sunroof exploded without an explanation. The entire panoramic sunroof shattered. It was the most frightening thing i have ever experience. If my sunroof screen had been open, all of the glass would have fallen on my head and in my eyes. Called the mb dealer for help, they weren't willing to help and suggested that i file it with my own insurance company. This is a defect of mb!! |
