WHILE IDLING AT RED LIGHT THE REAR QUARTER PANEL WINDOW ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF MY 2001 FORD WINDSTAR EXPLODED. NOTHING STRUCK THE GLASS FROM INSIDE OR OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE TO TRIGGER THE EXPLOSION. GLASS FLEW INTO THE INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE COVERING THE REAR SEAT WHERE MY CHILDREN ARE NORMALLY SITTING. FORTUNATELY I HAD NOT YET PICKED THEM UP FROM SCHOOL. I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE FOR THREE YEARS AND TO MY KNOWLEDGE THERE WERE NO CRACKS OR OTHER DAMAGE TO THE WINDOW PRIOR TO THE EXPLOSION. THE VEHICLE AND WINDOWS ARE GENERALLY IN GOOD REPAIR. I STILL DO NOT KNOW THE CAUSE OF THE EXPLOSION. THESE EVENTS OCCURRED ON APRIL 21, 2011 IN BOISE, IDAHO. *TR

ON 10/22/04 I DROPPED MY CHILD AT SCHOOL, AND EXITING THE PARKING LOT THE LEFT REAR SIDE WINDOW OF MY 2001 WINDSTAR VAN EXPLODED. I WAS IN A SCHOOL PARKING LOT, TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH. ON 3/22/05 I WAS COMPLETELY STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT WITH NO-ONE BEHIND MY VAN WHEN MY BACK LIFTGATE WINDOW EXPLODED. THE ONLY COMMONALITY BETWEEN THESE EVENTS WAS THAT BOTH MORNINGS WERE COOL AND THE INSIDE OF THE VAN HAD BEEN WARMED FOR 20-30 MINUTES. *AK

WHILE PARKED IN A DRIVEWAY, WITHOUT IGNITION RUNNING, ON A RAINY, 60-DEGREE DAY, REAR WINDOW EXPLODED FOR NO REASON. LUCKILY, THERE WERE NO KIDS IN THE BACK SEAT OR THE DRIVEWAY, AS THIS COULD HAVE BEEN TRAGIC. IT WAS QUITE AN EXPLOSION, AS THE LARGEST PIECE OF GLASS WAS THE SIZE OF A SILVER DOLLAR.*AK

WHILE SITTING CURBSIDE ON THE STREET IN MY FRONT YARD, THE REAR WINDOW OF MY FORD WINDSTAR BLEW OUT. IT WAS ABOUT 10:00 AM ON A 75 DEGREE MORNING.
