Description of the problem	Moonroof exploded while in the middle of the san mateo bridge. Immediately heard wind noise coming from the moonroof (the shade fortunately was drawn). I saw no obvious gravel on the bridge and no vehicles in my immediate vicinity that might account for it. Thought for a second that something dropped off a landing plane and realized that something like that would have easily punched through the shade. I examined the damage less than ten minutes later when i arrived at my destination. Saw shattered glass and a hole that was almost centered. Found no marks on the top side of the shade to indicate an object hitting. The edges of the hole tilted upwards. Temperature at the time is estimated to be low 60s, sunny, and no discernible wind. Inside temp was set at 67 or 68 and the fan was set on the low 2 setting. My husband examined the car when i returned home about 3 1/2 hours later. He searched through the shattered glass and found no objects. He tested the tilted edge to see what flexibility it had when i asked if air flow might have distorted the opening in the glass. It was quite stiff and he said that was unlikely. He (phd in engineering) concluded that there was no evidence of an object and commented the moonroof appeared as if it shattered upwards due to structural stress. I have a number of photos of the damage, one taken 10 minutes afterwards, the rest when i returned home. The toyota representative is holding on to the rock theory.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
