Prius 4-cyl

I was driving on interstate 20 with my wife when the sunroof exploded. There are two panes of glass and the exterior pane sent shards of glass out onto the highway. The internal pane of glass stayed in place but some shards of glass fell on my wife and myself. The Toyota dealer says this was due to a crack from debris which hit the car and compromised the integrity of the sunroof. They could not prove or show any mark indicating this as a fact. It was a very scary situation and I feel our sunroof was materially flawed and Toyota should be responsible for the problem.
