It was a beautiful day between 68-75 degrees. Got into my Rouge around 145p and when I shut my door the entire back window just shattered. I’m calling the manufacture tomorrow as there are many complaints on the internet as well as a possible class action lawsuit.

Back windshield spontaneously shattered. About 10 minutes after the car was parked a coworker heard a loud bang and noticed pieces of the window falling off of the car. When I came out (I was already inside) cracks were still appearing and pieces were falling off. I had put on the rear defrost on the way into work, about 10 minutes.

After multiple issues with the motor of my new Rogue, my windshield spontaneously shattered this week. I'm glad I was not driving the vehicle when it occurred because apparently it sounded like a shotgun when it ruptured. This is a major issue apparently for many Rogue owners. My concern is what else might be wrong with the vehicle - not a safe vehicle for sure. If you're a mom and driving with little kiddos - please find a safer vehicle! Nissan is repairing the windshield…
