WHILE I was driving the rear window just made a noise and the I heard shattering glasses. When I look thru the rear mirror I saw that the glass was all shatter. I stop when I park I look for any holes that indicate that someone throw something but there was no sign of it. I moved to a safe place and the windshield started to fall.

The rear glass randomly shattered at a stop sign. Nice sunny day in SoCal 75? and clear. Our safety was not immediately in danger but we couldn-??t drive the vehicle. Honda roadside came and towed it to a dealership close to our house. It was approved by the -??claim adjuster-?? and repaired about 3 business days later. Very scary.

While I was driving the rear window suddenly shattered creating a loud thud. Chunks of shattering glass fell into the back section of the car. No foreign object hit the car. This was just a spontaneous event. We often transport our grand children and it is possible that they could have been seriously injured if they would have been in the car at the time. The car is unsafe to drive at this time due to shards of glass still loose. I plan to contact the local Honda dealership and will request a representative to come inspect the damage. Our HRV is still under warranty.

Problem with low-beam headlights. When I'm driving, oncoming cars flash their high beams because they think I'm going with high beams. When something like this happens, and I'm blinded, I can't see well for some time. This endangers my life as well as that of other drivers. Honda says everything is OK with my car

While I was driving and while using the rear window defroster the rear window suddenly shattered. The shatter made a whole on the middle/upper left side (facing forward). This needs to be recalled as it is a hazard while driving and there shouldn-??t be rear windows easily shattering by using the defroster once. This was my first time using the defroster since I just bought the car.

The rear glass exploded out of nowhere while my partner and I were in the vehicle. This was very scary and life threatening. I went to two dealerships and they told me to file a claim with the insurance company because there is nothing that Honda can do since they do not cover glass and they did not conduct any inspection. It may however have something to do with the defrost system. My vehicle is available for inspection as of right now. I have a glass replacement scheduled for which I have to pay out of pocket.
