On 12-Jul-2017 at approximately 6:30am driving West on I-580 at approximately 65-70 mph less than 1 mile East of the castro valley blvd exit, in daily commuter traffic on open road (no overpass or other structures hanging over the road) I heard a tremendously loud bang, and looked around to see if something had hit me. I then heard the sound of broken glass above me in the sunroof "compartment"; the interior shade of the sunroof was closed at the time. After regaining my composure I was able to safely exit the freeway, inspected the sunroof and exterior of the car and did not notice any damage other than the broken sunroof glass. I returned home, took some pictures, inspected the vehicle further. There was no evidence of any damage to any body panels of the vehicle. There was no evidence (indentation) of anything striking the glass and denting the interior shade/shield of the sunroof.

The huge reflection of the dashboard speaker and headup display instrument on the middle of the driver windshield field of view, is covering more that 60% of the driver field of view, which create an very unsafe driving mode. The driver field of view is covered more that 60% of the reflection of the car manufacturer added instruments. The disturbing driving mode was reported to BMW usa and BMW dealer. The registration of the unsafe 2014 BMW have been canceled and the car returned to BMW dealer.
