I was driving south on I75 approximately one mile north of the University Exit at 2:30 PM at approximately 70 MPH when I heard a very loud bang (almost like a gunshot). I quickly surveyed the vehicle (and noted there were no other vehicles around me) while keeping it under control when I heard a second loud Bang, it was about 1-2 seconds after the first Bang. I heard a loud rushing noise after the second bang, that's when I suspected a shattered Sunroof. I exited I75 at University and inspected the damage. The Sunroof was shattered. It was fortunate that I had the sunscreen closed when the Sunroof shattered otherwise, I would have been showered with flying glass and/or lost control of the vehicle. I filed a Warranty Claim with Cadillac which was rejected a week later. I covered the cost of repair via my vehicle insurance using Crestview Cadillac to do the repair work

Lane DepartureUnknown Or Other

Side view mirrors do not open when you start driving the car. They can only be manually opened by a small button on the door which is hard to find. It is easy to start driving the car with no side view mirrors and not realize you have no mirrors until they are needed.
