All Visibilitywiper Complaints — Page 2
THE REAR SIDE WINDOW (NOT THE REAR PASSENGER WINDOW - THE STATIONARY ONE TO THE TRUNK) SPONTANEOUSLY EXPLODED WHEN I CLOSED THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AFTER GETTING INTO THE CAR. THE CAR WAS PARKED IN MY ENCLOSED GARAGE. THERE WAS NOTHING HITTING THE WINDOW AND THE WINDOW WAS NOT CHIPPED OR CRACKED BEFORE THE EXPLOSION. 90% OF THE GLASS IS ON THE GARAGE FLOOR INDICATING AN EXPLOSION VS IMPLOSION. THE CAR WAS NOT EVEN RUNNING AT THE TIME. AIR PRESSURE INSIDE AN ENCLOSED CAR SHOULD NOT CAUSE A WINDOW TO EXPLODE. OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE 62. THE CAR WAS LESS THAN A YEAR OLD! *TR
I OPENED THE VEHICLE TRUNK TO PLACE A SMALL BOX INSIDE. WHEN I SHUT THE TRUNK DOOR, THE GLASS ON THE PASSENGER-SIDE, REAR QUARTER PANEL SHATTERED. THE LOCATION WAS PARTICULARLY TROUBLING BECAUSE THE WINDOW WAS LOCATED DIRECTLY BEHIND MY INFANT'S CAR SEAT. THERE WERE NO PRIOR SCRATCHES OR CRACKS ON THE PANE. ALSO, THERE WAS NOTHING ON OR NEAR THE GLASS THAT WOULD HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO THE INCIDENT. *TR
VEHICLE IS ONLY A FEW WEEKS OLD AND THE WINDSHIELD BEGAN DEVELOPING A CRACK FROM THE PASSANGER SIDE SPREADING TOWARDS THE CENTER OF AND DOWN TOWARDS THE BOTTOM OF THE PASSANGER SIDE. *TR
