Incident

Sep 1, 2026

The rear windshield shattered ~ while driving for no reason. I did have the rear defrost on, but it was 60 degrees out, so that should not have happened. I've used it in the winter when it was below zero and nothing happened then. Now I'm afraid to use it at all. Just a giant pain having it replaced & now I'm scared. AND as a result, there's glass all over the driveway which will likely puncture a tire and they're telling me to get my car detailed because they can't remove all the glass from inside either. Unbelievable hassle I don't have time for. Also, the front collision warning comes on at totally random times ~ when there's no one in front of me at all or when there are several car lengths separating me and another vehicle. Sometimes it also says it's unable to detect, which is also totally random. It happens when the weather is perfect ~ I understand if it's snowy, but on a sunny day, that shouldn't happen.
