Sunroof of my 2011 nissan murano exploded suddenly while driving down the highway on a clear day and no other cars in the area. The malfunction of the sunroof exploding caused the center of the sunroof glass to protrude outward into a dome shape while glass pieces shattered into the cabin of the murano. Upon contacting the nissan dealer, they referred me to the national nissan customer service number, but after 4 days I am still waiting on a call back from the regional nissan office. This is a major safety issue that nissan must take responsibility for correcting as soon as possible.

We were driving at 35 miles/hr with 3 years old daughter in the car seat in the back. Suddenly the roof just exploded. We had the inside cover of the sunroof open and the debris from the roof explosion flew in our daughter face. Fortunately, beside minor scratches on her face and crying when we put her back to the car, she is ok. She now resist us when we try to put her in this car. This is absolutely a quality issue from nissan. We agree with nissan that we never heard about roof exploding before, but we as many other have witnessed one from car made by nissan.
Driving appx. 30mph on open asphalt road, no cars ahead of me, no cars behind me when heard loud explosion, similar to shot gun blast. When located trouble found the moon roof had exploded. Appeared to be an upward explosion. Car taken to nissan dealer for repairs. Damage was not caused from any flying objects. Has to be a defect.
