My Back Window Just Exploded.
So im outside wariming my car up to go to lunch with my mom since its mother's day. But i forget my wallet in the house. So i turn the car off and run to the house. When i get back to the car, i start the car and about 3 seconds later, BOOOM!. I duck and look back.
What the F#$K. mY BACK WINDOW IS COMPLETeLY CRACKED.
So I get out to look if anyone threw something..nothing. i look to see if there is a sniper, assasin or something in the trees.
.nothing. Pretty weird?

Drastic temperature changes combined with a possibly improperly seated glass will result in a crack/shatter.

can i get it replaced for free through acura. It's a 95 TL, AND IVE OWNED IT FOR ABOUT 5 MONTHS. It just exploded without being caused by anything. Like the weather was cool at nioght, i live in southern california, and breezy in the morning. Also, the window was in perfect condition with no cracks.Fu@k this problem.

TL no more!
If you have comprehensive insurance, they will cover it. Just pay the deductible. Either that, or you can take it to Acura and bitch about it. They won't replace it for free but they may do it at a discount as a goodwill gesture.
