Hi All,

I thought I would check in to see how everyone was doing. Quite a few new members in the area which is great!

Also... I thought it would be prudent to let everyone know that my E90 (2011) sunroof literally exploded this past week while driving during in the morning on Bangerter Hwy and projected shattered glass EVERYWHERE inside and outside of the vehicle. Little and big chards covered the interior. All the windows were closed and the sunroof 'shutter' was open. Fortunately I was the only one in the car and was able to somewhat maintain my composure when the incident occurred. The car had been in the garage all morning and there were no cars anywhere in front of me to have thrown a rock... so it appears that it was the case of glass failure, or a random satellite component. If you do a quick search, you'll find that this isn't necessarily an anomaly with BMW's. It was quite an interesting experience and I'll forever be freaked out by the possibility of a repeat in the future. I'll definitely be putting some sort of film on it to prevent the shattering effect from happening again.

Has this happened to anyone else here?

Cheers-

Park2670 · 06-23-2013, 09:31 AM

Hi Dave!

I saw this happen a few times at the dealership. Not often on the sedans, but it's still possible. Should be covered under warranty.

SLCGoonski · 06-23-2013, 02:22 PM

Holy crap Dave...some scary stuff. Thank goodness Lindsey and Nathan weren't in the car.

Maybe it was the 140mph you were doing?

LOL, right. But I thought Bangerter was also known as Utah's Autobahn for a reason???

I certainly would have had a different demeanor at the dealership if anyone else had been in the car other than little ol' me.

I've been twice this year and didn't see anyone I knew either time. But it's definitely been too long! If my car is put back together by then I'll stop by. She's been in the shop for a week tomorrow which also should be the day of completion.

Park2670 · 06-25-2013, 04:55 PM

I usually try to make it every other week. Nate is there most weeks... I think.
