2024 MERCEDES-BENZ CLA 250

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

I was driving down [XXX] and heard what sounded like an explosion/loud bang sound and shattered glass. I was unsure what happened and where the sound was coming since I was driving alone on the highway and was panicked. I knew glass had broken because I heard the glass shatter and felt the air from the outside coming into the car. I found a safe place to pull over on the shoulder of the highway and found that the sunroof had shattered and there was a large hole in my sunroof. Had my shade screen not been closed on the sunroof, the glass would have fallen on me and into the vehicle. The shattered sunroof not only terrified me while driving but caused me to be so distracted that I almost caused an accident injuring myself and/or others. After calling the police, they came to clean the large pieces of glass off of the top and provided a report number and told me I could finish my drive home with my husband following behind me. I called Mercedes customer care and reported the issue and was informed to have the road side service pick the car up to be inspected at the dealership. I have owned the car for 1 month and a half.
