Sunroof exploded while driving. I took car to Ford and the service manager said he seen it happen before but I was told it was not covered under warranty. I saw a few complaints in google blogs. I will contact a lawyer.

It was 5:00 a.M I was driving to work on I215 freeway. There was no road construction, no other vehicles around me and I heard and felt what I thought was a gunshot, however, it wasn't. the 2012 sunroof exploded up. Thank goodness there wasn't any other traffic! I continued driving to work and as soon as the sun came up I took pictures and immediately call the rental company. They told me they had never heard of this before and to bring it back. When I took it back later in the afternoon, they supposedly called the manufacturer and I was told I would be responsible. It obviously was a defect of the 2012 Ford Focus and I am not going to pay. Today I received an invoice from them. I am contacting a lawyer as well as a local news reporter.

I was driving and heard many strange noises coming from the roof of the car. When I slid open the sunroof hatch I saw the sky through a hole in the sunroof and shattered glass. When I arrived to my destination I inspected the hole from the outside and noticed that the sunroof glass broke in an upward manner. (if it had been hit with a rock or something I assume it would have broken downwards & would have found the object) it looked as if the glass exploded. The remaining glass still in the sunroof is bubbled and barely staying in tact. I commute to work via public transportation and the sunroof had not been used in months.
