Description of the problem | Driving on the interstate when a loud explosive sound like a gunshot occurred. The car shook violently, i thought i had been hit, although nothing had been close to me. When i realized i was still driving on all four tires and not flipping end for end, though the wheel was still vibrating violently, i felt glass raining down on my head and there was extensive air noise. I looked up and almost all the entire panoramic sunroof was gone, and what was left was falling on my head. The road was smooth, there was no overpass near, and no cars were in my immediate vicinity. I pulled off the interstate and called the dealership. |
