Have an 05 Getz which has been very reliable but today when I started it up the sunroof opened on its own, and the buttons wouldn't work to close it.

Had that on a Focus. Turned out water was getting in through the sunroof seal and down by the switch. Miniscule amount getting in but coming out to find a car with a soaking wet interior forst thing in the morning is no fun.

Faulty sunroof motor was a common enough problem on the Coupe, it might be a similar problem with the Getz. If it needs to be replaced then it will not be cheap.
