While driving on a public roadway, the tempered rear windshield spontaneously shattered with a violent, extremely loud pop resembling a gunshot. There was no vehicle ahead of me, no overpass, and absolutely no external object or projectile impacted the glass. The glass immediately webbed entirely across the surface from edge to edge due to internal stress, but is currently being held in place by window tint film. This year and model (2006 Honda Civic 2-door coupe) has a historical NHTSA recall for rear glass adhesion failure (Recall 06V326000). This spontaneous failure created an immediate, severe distraction and vision hazard while operating the vehicle at speed.
