2020 Acura Rdx

My car was parked in a Garage untouched for hours I turned on remote start and came back to find my back window completely shattered. I looked inside the vehicle to see maybe if someone through a rock or anything but i found nothing and the way it cracked shows it came from the defroster.I have seen multiple complaints about Acura RDXs back window randomly shattering after using the rear defroster on the vehicle. I called an Acura service shop and they confirmed this is a re occurring issue but refused to compensate or assist in fixing the matter. They claimed my warranty ended or there is no recalls for my vehicle but this is a known issues with Acura RDXs.

Good day, I bought this car at an auction in the USA, repaired it, and on [XXX], while driving without any foreign objects, the rear window burst, later I found out that this could be a factory defect in these models. Is it possible to receive any compensation from the official dealer for this event. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Our 2020 Acura RDX windshield spontaneously shattered. After reading a bulletin that this is a common issue we contacted our local dealer. We were told it was not a recall and was not covered. We contacted Acura to speak about the issue and were told we could take it to a dealer to determine if a small portion would be covered but even that was not a guarantee. This is an obvious issue with this vehicle.

Rear windshield shattered while parked and the car was not running. There was a bulletin only at the time. Called customer service. They advised to submit an insurance claim, which I didn’t do. The dealership disputed with them and ended up replacing it at their cost. Later several others in the area experienced the same thing. Acura acknowledged there was a problem with the rear windshield defroster. I still have pieces of glass within the hatch.

I was driving my car and had just entered the highway and my panoramic sunroof exploded. It sounded like a gun had went off in my car. I immediately drove to the dealership who informed me that it was not covered under warranty. I had it replaced as I was out of town 8 hours from home and the glass started falling onto the headliner which I kept closed for safety. I did catch the incident on my dashcam which recorded the audio and video through the windshield. There was no warning that it was going to happen and we were not close enough to other vehicles for incidental contact.

“I went to my garage to get my car and off to work supposedly, I put my bag inside the car back set and close it after that I heard a crinkling and shattering noise. When I checked around I saw the rear windshield of my car is totally shattered before I get in the vehicle and before starting. It sounded as if something was in the rear of the vehicle. The entire rear window glass was shattered. There was no impact, no foreign object hit it, etc. It simply shattered while sitting in the driveway, with the vehicle off, when I closed the door. “ I cleaned my car last night and no indentation or any crack or line on the window but the shattered line is ALL OVER THE REAR WINDOW literally. And per my research, says that tons of ACURA RDX 2019 and UP models have this kind of sudden shuttering of the rear window without any hit. This is very dangerous .. Good thing my situation is not like the others that their rear window suddenly broke while on the highway. Hopefully, a JUST will be served. And it's not right for us owners to pay for this situation (rear glass + service fee), and I lost my job today because of this situation. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE for anyone who owns this kind of car. VERY UNACCEPTABLE since ACURA already know about this issue before and still they are selling this kind of defective car.
