Got in car 7:30 am, when I closed driver door, heard glass falling. Rear hatch window was shattered into a million pieces. Car was parked under a carport, no indication found of anything that might have hit the window. Car is parked quite a distance from the street. Rear driver door window was open about 1", so no pressure buildup. No grass cutting in the area, temperature 70's - 80's.

2011 Kia Soul with less than 100 miles had pebble hit driver side door window and chipped it in several spots. At 6,000 miles, pebble hits windsheild that chips and cracks windsheild. Safetylite could not repair and crack is growing. Also, front and sides of car paint is chipping at an alarming rate. Paint chiping is a gross quality issue. However, the substandard glass is a really gross safety issue and can result in injury and or death. There appears to be a pattern of these defects and should be throughly investigated.

Traveling down highway 35 the front driver side window shattered. No apparent foreign object appears to have hit the glass, it just exploded into a thousand pieces.

The first incident occurred while on my way to work last week, rock hit the windshield and broke the windshield. Today while driving to work, same thing. I was not tailgating, I was not following any big trucks...nothing. I have been driving for 13 years and have not had this happen to me before. Coincidence" I think not. I think there is a default with the glass. I was driving the speed limit and driving as I always do, and twice in a week" unacceptable.
