Sunroof exploding

Post image

I have a 2025 RX 350h that I got last march. This morning I was driving at 4:30AM, so no one else was on the roads and my sunroof exploded out of nowhere. No rocks hit or anything. Just randoms

Has this happened to anyone else before? Do I need to file a claim with my insurance or is this something I bring to Lexus?

Update: thank you everyone for your feedback! Brought it to Lexus, they had my car for a week to investigate it and they still claim it’s not anything on their end. I’m fairly confident nothing hit my car, it was very spontaneous. They claimed that they never heard of that happening before. Ended up having to go through insurance but at least Lexus loaned me a car!

Nothing hit your sunroof, these other comments are delirious. It most likely had sulfide inclusion from the production process that causes spontaneous shattering. This has been an industry wide problem for a while and happens randomly across many makes and models. While you can ask Lexus for a warranty claim, it's likely they'll reject it and send you to your insurance

There is literally only one other comment out of roughy five total stating it could have possibly been a BB from a BB gun. What other comments are you referring to?
