My sun-roof burst in my 2006 mercedes benz (S350). The sun-roof was closed. The car was not hit by a rock or any other object. It just exploded. When I looked at the glass that remained it was pointing upward as if something on the inside of the car caused it to break. I was driving the car at the time when it broke. There was another person in the car.
