Consumer Description

THE CAR WAS PARKED ON A CITY STREET, NOT RUNNING. WHEN I APPROACHED TO ENTER THE CAR IN THE MORNING, AFTER CLICKING THE UNLOCK BUTTON BUT BEFORE TOUCHING THE CAR, THE REAR WINDSHIELD SPONTANEOUSLY SHATTERED INTO HUNDREDS OF PIECES. NOTHING HIT OR FELL ON THE CAR, NO ONE WAS TOUCHING IT NOR IN IT. IT SIMPLY SHATTERED AND BROKE AS IT WAS SITTING THERE STATIONARY AND OFF.
