Sunroof unexpectedly and randomly exploded while driving. There was no impact, glass shattered without notice and produced a very loud explosion similar to the sound of a gun shot. This occurred while driving on the highway at 70mph with outside temperature at approx. 49 degree fahrenheit, and no rain. Dash cam footage confirms no debris were thrown at the car and this happened unexplainably. Had sunroof visor been open, shards of glass would have rained down on driver and passenger. The experience of hearing a loud explosion while driving is very startling and unsafe, especially with the potential for glass shards to fall onto the driver and passengers.

The driver side rearview mirror vibrates violently and blurs visibility at speeds higher than 50 MPH. A tsb has been issued for this issue, but mazda refuses to repair it for certified preowned vehicles even though this is a manufacturing defect and is very distracting during driving on the highway. I have to look at the mirror for a longer time to make sure the road is clear, which is a higher risk to my safety.
