Description of the problem	At around 0400 pm we were driving east on hwy 50 about fifteen miles outside of pueblo co just past the turn off to the pueblo chemical depot headed to la junta. There was no to little traffic, we heard a loud bang or pop that scared us both and made us duck for cover. My wife quickly pulled to the side of the road where i got out to inspect the car and found the sunroof had literally blown out, shattered into tiny pieces. There was no foreign objects or rocks, it just spontaneously blew out. We discussed what we should do as we were a long ways from home. We called the dealer and explained what had happened they said they would repair it under warranty we just needed to get there. We told them we would need a loaner and they said they wouldn't be able to do that tonight, so we had to take it home for the night and take it back in the morning, only problem was the wind was blowing shards of glass around the interior of the car, very unsafe. We get home and find out on-line that there is a problem with this on the sorento's, this guy obviously knew of it and didn't offer to have it towed or to help us with a loaner so now we will have to have it towed there because its to dangerous to drive. ...
