Rear window shattered without any impact. This is a known Acura issue due to faulty rear defroster grid. There was a bulletin issued but not a recall. Called local dealership and they are aware of the issues. Inspected and replaced glass on 3/7/2023

When backing out of my driveway and turning wheel to the left I get two loud popping noises from behind me. Other online reports identify this as a problem with the sunroof. I also have instances where the sunroof does not fully close unless I repush the close button. Dealer rep suggested this is most likely due to an issue with the sunroof.

Opened my Acura RDX car door, sat down, closed the door - and then my rear windshield shattered and collapsed into my trunk. I knew of no damage to it - the car is a 2020, relatively new - This incident caught me my complete surprise. Searched on internet, and see similar complaints from other Acura owners about exploding rear windshields after closing driver side door.

When this RDX-€™s weight distribution shifts/flexes from turning out of a driveway or any parking entrance with an incline/decline the panoramic moonroof makes a popping sound across the rear of the moonroof. This occurs from both rear corners of the moonroof. The moonroof frame may be knocking around the body of the car due to lack of insulation or the moonroof frame not fitting properly. The problem appears to be fairly widespread with some owners on the Acura Forum site, Acurazine, claiming the popping actually shattered the moonroof glass while driving. The popping sound that I experience daily, combined with the countless similar complaints is what has prompted me to file this complaint. https://acurazine.com/forums/third-generation-rdx-2019-454/panoramic-sunroof-popping-982149/ Hopefully this can lead to an investigation and recall. Thank you.
