I was driving down the highway at night at 10:50 and all of a sudden heard like a gunshoot and glass came down on me and my family( wife, baby, cousin and his son) it had us so shook that I had to pull over and call the police, granted I worked for the sheriff's department for two years so I tell them please come out so I can make a report. Because if it was someone drop something or shooting then we could be in danger. So they came out and they like what drop on the truck and we like a nothing come in but glass. So there was no evidence of anything falling. What was the reason for the sunroof glass breaking like that?

 

Welcome to the forum...
Yep that is not unheard of.... https://chevroletforum.com/forum/tah...xploded-71997/

 

I've never had a sunroof explode but I've had a driver side windows do so in another vehicle of mine.


I was driving down the road and I hear a pop and the window was in a million pieces but still intact. I called in a police report but I think the problem was due to a broken lift place that's attached to the windows itself inside the door. I think I rolled up the window a little too tight causing it to break while riding on a semi-rough road.

 

Tempered glass is highly stressed and sometimes a small unnoticed flaw can trigger its destruction. I had a shower door turn into a pile of pea sized glass on the floor. No one was around when it happened.
