Consumer Description

AS I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, THE SUNROOF TO MY CAR SUDDENLY EXPLODED FOR NO APPARENT REASON. THIS VERY EASILY COULD HAVE CAUSED ME TO WRECK INTO ANOTHER CAR, AS I PANICKED TO MOVE FROM THE FAR LEFT LANE TO THE FAR RIGHT SHOULDER. I THOUGHT AT FIRST THAT I HAD HIT SOMEONE, OR SOMEONE HAD HIT ME. HOWEVER UPON INSPECTION THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH ANY OTHER PART OF MY CAR. I CAN BEST EXPLAIN THIS BY ASKING YOU TO IMAGINE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND A HUGE ROCK FALLING ON MY SUNROOF. AFTER A PULLED OVER AND INSPECTED MY BROKEN SUNROOF THERE WAS NO ROCK OR ANYTHING ELSE TO SUGGEST SOMETHING FELL ON MY ROOF.
