The contact owns a 2016 Ford Escape. While driving approximately 65 mph the sun roof exploded upwards and made a very loud noise without warning. The glass shattered and the pieces fell inside the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who did not do anything, but stated that the failure was unusual. The dealer speculated that something may have hit the roof to cause the explosion; however, the contact disagreed. The manufacturer gave the contact a case number and promised to call the contact back. The vehicle remained at the dealer's, but was not repaired. The failure mileage was 21,592. Updated 05/10/17
