| Description of the problem | I have a 2017 nissan murano. I was driving on a highway at approximately 12 in the afternoon when we heard a loud explosion on the roof of the car. The sunroof glass and headliner were both closed. I slightly opened the headliner and could see the glass was shattered. I immediately pulled over on the side of the highway and looked on top of the car to find the front section of the panoramic sunroof had completely exploded and was shatter. The glass was actually protruding upward so it was obvious nothing had falling from the sky on top of it. The glass, then gave way and completely fell on the fabric headliner. We then spent the next hour and a half on the side of the highway waiting for a tow truck where the vehicles was then towed to a nissan dealer. At the time of incident, it was 75 degrees outside and clear day. I was driving 55 miles per hour. |
