I was driving home yesterday afternoon when the driver's side rear vent window imploded all over the inside of the vehicle. Any thoughts on what might have caused it?

I brought it to the dealer right after it happened and they suggested someone fired a BB at it. Given that it was about -25C I have more than a little trouble believing that one. The retired couple driving by are not likely to blame either. I suspect a defective peice of glass.

The dealer couldn't do anything more than cover it with plastic until tomorrow (a big TOYO TIRES bag). I was wondering if anyone else has heard of this happening. I beleive that Honda should cover the replacement cost for this.

Thanks,
Wes.

Could the glass have been chipped or cracked earlier in the day, or on another day, and finally it fractured as you were driving?

If your Ody about 2 years old, is it probable that a defect would have shown up already?

I don't know auto glass, so I'm just wondering.

Regards,
