Driving down the highway with all windows and sunroof closed, suddenly the sunroof burst into a million pieces raining down on me and my family. No impact caused the window to break, it appeared to burst from the inside out.

While driving in the clear, with all windows and sun roof closed, without any observed reason, the moon roof "exploded"in a loud bang/pop. Glass and glass fragments (some not so benign) rained down onto my hair, shirt, and pants, but mostly on the unoccupied rear seats where my children were five minutes ago. I still have the broken moon roof.
