sunroof exploded while driving

Filed Jun 7, 2018 · Visibility · 76,600 miles · MO

Sunroof spontaneously burst on june 6, 2018, around 7:25pm, my family and I were heading home a store, going north on mo-65 at about 65 MPH in springfield, mo. Just south of battlefield rd, we heard a loud "pop" sound. We thought our daughter had hit her metal thermos against the back window. When we arrived home, however, I heard a crackling sound and traced it to the sunroof, which was shattered (like a spider web) and bulging at the top. Since then, as of 9am the following day, it has continued to bulge more, with a couple of small pieces of glass having popped out onto the top of the glass. It has not yet collapsed into the car, but I am leaving the sunroof shade closed so the glass doesn't fall into the cabin. Of note, the weather was mostly sunny, temperature around 80f. The sunroof was closed, as was the sunroof shade. Traffic was fairly light immediately around us. There were no large trucks nearby. No rocks or gravel was hitting the underside of the car, and there were no other sounds of anything hitting the car.

Stopped at a red light when we heard an explosion, continued to drive when we became aware of noise and what appeared to be rushing wind . After checking all doors and windows and finding they were closed I just happened to slide open the cover leading to the sun roof and saw the exploded window and glass fragments.

We were driving down the road at 65mph on a low traveled highway when there was a loud bang. It was almost as if a gun went off in the van. We pulled off and inspected the van and found out that the sunroof was shattered. The glass was blown outward and no rocks are inside the glass. It is going to cost over 800$ to fix. I am confident that the sunroof exploded.

While driving on the wide open highway with no other cars around me, my sunroof suddenly shattered. Part of it since blew away on the highway while trying to get to a place where it can be covered.
