“Daughter driving 15 miles an hour and windshield cracked. This is the third vehicle I have owned that the windshield just begins to crack or explodes on Honda vehicles. I have called an asked why this is happening to their vehicles and they can not answer. I have also had roll overs in a Honda civic and no airbags exploded, have a Honda pilot that hit a truck tire going 70 miles an hour and ripped out the whole front and side of the car and no air bag exploded. I have had three separate cars that have front, back and side windshields explode. …”
NHTSA complaint #10652792, filed 2014-11, 52,000 miles“Passenger windshield exploded internally while driving down the interstate at 75mph the first time. Called Honda and they said there was no issue with it. I had the insurance company replace it at that time. Now, again this morning, the same window shattered again internally on the vehicle while it was sitting in our driveway--all windows are rolled up and --kaboom--it exploded. Something is seriously wrong with this. Any passenger could have been seriously injured- I am shocked that Honda has not recalled this for this model given they are supposed to be big on safety. …”
