Going to take it in to dealer this morning and hopefully BMW will cover under warranty, although I've gone ahead and started a claim w/insurance.

there's glass all over the inside, but no injuries suffered.
Didn't find a rock or other projectile, so a little 'net research showed some other model BMWs prone to this as well. |
Never heard of anyone reporting that.....I do remember that happening to a VERY small percentage of e60's. I dont know how thats possible without something hitting it on the highway. Keep us posted please in case someone else reports it.
Edit: Spoke too soon

Thats an x1 from 2012 with 40,000 km on it that had it happen....Also a very intresting explaination of how a rock could not cause it on there as well WORTH READING.
Edit 2: You may not get far with the dealer unless policy has changed since I was in there......Try BMW Corporate AFTER going to the dealer.
Edit 3: Found a good reason why it happens....
