Consumer Description

AFTER STARTING CAR BY REMOTE, I ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE, GETTING ABOUT 10 FEET WHEN I HEARD A LOUD EXPLOSION INSIDE MY CAR ALONG WITH A BRIGHT FLASH. STOPPING MY CAR I LOOKED AROUND INSIDE AND OUT AND SAW NOTHING UNUSUAL. GETTING OUT OF VEHICLE, I EXAMINED MY REAR WINDOW AND FOUND IT TO BE COMPLETELY SHATTERED.THIS OCCURRED WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PULL OUT OF MY PARKING LOT IN MY CONDOMINIUM COMPLEX. MY THEORY IS THAT IT WAS A FAULTY REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER.
