Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“while on vacation, upon entering the parked vehicle, the rear hatch window spontaneously shattered. No local place was open (Sunday) and the wait for a new window was days out so I had to drive two hours home with a makeshift windshield made from a tarp and duct tape. This is an obvious hazard as I could not see out the back window. Replacement window to be installed in the coming days. No warnings indicated.”
NHTSA complaint #11728077, filed 2026-03“What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? My rear windshield shattered on its own. My car was parked at work, which is a secure compound that is monitored 24/7 by security guards and cameras. I filed an incident report with security and they reviewed camera footage and didn't find any suspicious activity. I later discovered the incident is a known issue with a 2019-2022 Acura RDX (see Acura's Service Bulletin 22-014 version 2). …”
