NHTSA Complaint #11133430 — 2015 HONDA CIVIC

LEAVING WORK THIS MORNING, I TURNED ON MY CAR AND ACTIVATED THE REAR DEFROSTER. AFTER DRIVING FOR ABOUT 10 MINTUES, MY REAR WINDOW LITERALLY EXPLODED SOUNDING LIKE A CANNON WENT OFF RIGHT BEHIND MY HEAD. I WAS DRIVING AT APROX. 15 MPH ON A EVEN ROAD SURFACE SO IVE RULED OUT VIBRATIONS AND ALSO IT WAS ABOUT 75 DEGREES F SO HEAT COULDN'T HAVE CAUSED IT FROM RAPID TEMP CHANGES. THE ONLY THING I HAVE LET TO WONDER IS IF IT WAS A DEFECT IN THE DEFROSTER THAT CAUSED THE GLASS TO BECOME TOO HOT AND CAUSE THIS. MY DEALERSHIP HAS NOT TAKEN ANY MEASURES TO PULLING AMPS FROM THE DEFROSTER TO SEE IF THERE IS A DEFECT IN THE DEFROSTER AND HAVE REFUSED TO SERVICE THIS UNDER A MANUFACTURER WARRANTY. IS THERE ANY RECORD OF THIS HAPPENING TO OTHER HONDAS? IF SO, I MAY BE ABLE TO PROVE IT WAS A DEFECT FROM THE MANUFACTURER. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.
