The 2006 Subaru Outback limited was moving at about 60 mph down the highway with no traffic around. A noise of shattering glass was heard, although no evidence of broken glass was immediately noticed. When the car was stationary, the owner observed the vehicle and found the front panoramic sunroof glass panel had shattered. There were no vehicles around when this incident happened and the temperature had been very stable up to that point in the day. (11 am, October 17th, 2017.) no evidence of an impact was found as the window had no chips or holes from an impact, but the entire front sunroof panel of glass was completely cracked into tiny pieces.

I noticed a glare in the windshield above the dashboard making it difficult/annoying to see. This appears to be due to the dashboard melting and losing the "grainy" effect which reduced the glare. The dash is sticky and very reflective in the windshield.

Rear wiper ceased functioning. The problem was due to broken wire(s) in a wiring harness that passes through a rubber accordion boot between the car body and the tail-gate (near the right-hand tailgate hinge). Many of the other wires, affecting upper brake light, license plate lights, backup lights, and tailgate latch/lock, were frayed and were replaced due to imminent failure of the above listed components. Research at an online forum for Subaru owners showed that many other owners (of 2005 and 2006 Subaru Outbacks) have experienced similar failures due to broken wires in this wiring harness. I suspect that it is an under-reported problem. I believe that Subaru should be asked to issue a safety recall notice.
