 Description of the problemHello, see attached pics of our outback sunroof that exploded while traveling southbound on i-95 in ga crossing south newport river in townsend, ga 31331 around 10:55 a. M on 11/19/17. All occupants heard a loud pop and sound of glassing exiting the rear of the vehicle prior to pulling over. I cleared to the side of the interstate, documented the sunroof damage and then drove 40 mph to next exit where i located a vacuum to clean up the mess so that we could drive 35 miles back home. There was a cold front passing through the area, so there were some gusty winds, but temps were only around 60 degrees. We had just refueled and were accelerating to 60 mph to merge with traffic. We were using a sear's x-cargo carrier on top for personnel storage. I have an appt with the dealer tomorrow to assess warranty, etc. The vehicle is six months old.
