Description of the problem	While driving on the highway during rush hour the sunroof spontanesously shattered. The sunroof was closed and the cloth shield was tucked away. It sounded like a gunshot and deafened my ears for about 5 minutes. I thought someone fired a gun or a nearby car got into an accident since i felt no impact other than sound. Because i was driving i was extremely startled when i looked up and saw an open window and glass had fallen all over me. It had happened so quickly. I tried to pull over in the nearest exit and while getting out of the car and maneuvering out, had cut myself several times.
