An accident nearly occurred as a result of the gunshot like impact experienced inside the cabin of the vehicle as a result of the sunroof explosion. I had several chards of glass embed in my skin and in my eye, as the explosion produced an ultra fine dust of safety glass particles that were unavoidable. No impact debris or foreign object was attributable to the cause of the explosion, hinting at manufacturer defect.”
