“While driving to work on a freeway I suddenly heard a blasting sound and next thing what I saw was there were glass pieces everywhere on my body and in the car. The panoramic moon roof of my car exploded out of no reason. I am very sure that nothing hit the roof or fall on the roof. The freeway was wide open and fortunately I was wearing sunglasses so my eyes didn't hurt by the explosion. However, after taking a medical leave from work and having checked up at the hospital I decided to take the car to mbenz dealership to report what happened to the car and know why it happened. …”
