“I was driving on the garden state parkway northbound on the new york extension in the evening of march 24th at approximately 7:40 pm at approximately 65 MPH when out of nowhere my moon roof exploded. There was absolutely no overpass remotely near where this occurred. There was no other damage on the car forward of the moon roof and no damage past it aside from scratching caused by glass on the roof and rear spoiler. There was no object that impacted the vehicle in any way shape or form. Based on the attached photos the glass is protruding from the roof panel as if it exploded outward. …”
