Consumer Description

When driving preparing to merge on to the highway I hear what sounded like a gun shot. It then sounded like my sunroof was open becuae I could hear the wind along wiht the sound of glass beraking an falling. My sunroof which was closed at the time exploded. The weather and road conditons were normal. The vehichle is available fo inspection if needed. I pulled over, opened the sun shade which was closed at the time of the incident and glass fell into the vehile and onto my wife and I. Had the sunhade not been closed at the time, the glass would have fallen directly on us or into our eyes. I then drove the vehicle home and parked it mu my garage. There were no existing cracks, chips or visible defects to the sunroof prior to this heepening. It has not been inspected by BMW, the police or an insurance represetative as this happened on a Saturday. I have a call into the BMW dealership where it was purchased. There were no warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure.
