“In August 2024, I purchased a 2023 Nissan Rogue. On January 12, 2025, after a cold front brought ice and snow into our area in North Mississippi, I noticed that the rear windshield was busted. When I contacted my insurance provider, I was informed that there was no information stating that this issue was expected. I filed a claim and had a new windshield installed.”

NHTSA complaint #11711920, filed 2026-01

“While I was driving the right passenger back window exploded which is made out of soda lime glass. During the incident, I almost lost control of the vehicle and glass got all over me and my husband. We were driving on the highway at a 70mph speed. The explosion caused me to become stunned while driving and I almost recked and caused harm to others due to the window exploding.”

NHTSA complaint #11767638, filed 2026-09

“I was waiting to turn when my rear window had a sudden BANG noise and shattered. There was no snow on my car, and no evidence of anything going inside my car that could've caused the damage. As I drove, the glass continued to shatter more and more and ended up in my vehicle, and potentially on the road as well. There is currently an open class action lawsuit regarding this issue.”

NHTSA complaint #11721045, filed 2026-02

“The rear windshield on my Nissan Rogue shattered suddenly without any impact while the vehicle was parked. The glass appeared to explode outward. I later discovered other owners have reported similar issues with Rogue rear windshields shattering unexpectedly. I had to replace the glass immediately for safety and paid out of pocket for the repair. I am concerned this may be related to a defect in the rear glass.”

NHTSA complaint #11723243, filed 2026-03

“The car had been garaged since Thursday evening and all day Friday. Used it Saturday morning to drive 5 miles, went into my location and when i came out 2 hours later, the rear window on the liftgate was crumbled. Nothing impacted it to cause this. Just shattered on it's own. Temperature was 62 F.”
