Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING TO WORK IN THE MORNING WITH NO OTHER TRAFFIC ON THE ROAD AND RANDOMLY THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR WINDOW BLEW OUT. IT WAS WINTER AND THE REAR DEFROSTER WAS ON AT THE TIME. I SMELLED BURNING WIRES AND SHUT EVERYTHING OFF BUT MY HEADLIGHTS AND HEARD A LOUD POP WHEN THE WINDOW BLEW OUT. THIS HAPPENED AT 4AM WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY.
