Consumer Description

“I went to my garage to get my car and off to work supposedly, I put my bag inside the car back set and close it after that I heard a crinkling and shattering noise. When I checked around I saw the rear windshield of my car is totally shattered before I get in the vehicle and before starting. It sounded as if something was in the rear of the vehicle. The entire rear window glass was shattered. There was no impact, no foreign object hit it, etc. It simply shattered while sitting in the driveway, with the vehicle off, when I closed the door. “ I cleaned my car last night and no indentation or any crack or line on the window but the shattered line is ALL OVER THE REAR WINDOW literally. And per my research, says that tons of ACURA RDX 2019 and UP models have this kind of sudden shuttering of the rear window without any hit. This is very dangerous .. Good thing my situation is not like the others that their rear window suddenly broke while on the highway. Hopefully, a JUST will be served. And it's not right for us owners to pay for this situation (rear glass + service fee), and I lost my job today because of this situation. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE for anyone who owns this kind of car. VERY UNACCEPTABLE since ACURA already know about this issue before and still they are selling this kind of defective car.
