The Sunroof spontaneously shattered while I was driving home. Upon further inspection, it looked like the glass was becoming separated from the frame as well.

Driving to work. Heard an explosion, glass shattered... Panoramic sunroof exploded!
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 ford escape. While driving approximately 55 MPH with the shade of the sun roof retracted, the glass exploded upward. There were no injuries. The contact stopped the vehicle on the side of the road and then drove home. The vehicle was taken to newberg ford in newberg, oregon for diagnostic testing. There was no explanation as to why the sun roof exploded. The vehicle was repaired by an unknown independent glass specialist. The manufacturer was not notified. The approximate failure mileage was 45,000.
Was pulling out of a parking lot and heard a noise(I described the noise like a rock hitting the glass) looked at my windshield and didn't see anything. Went home and parked my car in the garage. Got in the car a couple days later and got in the car, started the car and my sunroof went back about an inch and shattered glass feel into the car. Checked on top of car and the roof popped upward and shattered. Did research and the 2014 escape had the same issues.fors refused to replace the sunroof because their engineers decided from my photos that it was probably caused by derbie from the road.
