On 10/22/04 I dropped my child at school, and exiting the parking lot the left rear side window of my 2001 Windstar van exploded. I was in a school parking lot, traveling approximately 10 mph. On 3/22/05 I was completely stopped at a traffic light with no-one behind my van when my back liftgate window exploded. The only commonality between these events was that both mornings were cool and the inside of the van had been warmed for 20-30 minutes.

While parked in a driveway, without ignition running, on a rainy, 60-degree day, rear window exploded for no reason. Luckily, there were no kids in the back seat or the driveway, as this could have been tragic. It was quite an explosion, as the largest piece of glass was the size of a silver dollar.

While sitting curbside on the street in my front yard, the rear window of my Ford Windstar blew out. It was about 10:00 am on a 75 degree morning. My wife and neighbor were in the front yard and witnessed the event. Ford denied a problem and forced us to go through our insurance to fix the problem. Luckily the car was not being driven on the road.
