Rear window shattered in convertable top at 15 mph after normal acceleoration from 0 mph. We were stopped at a traffic light for several minutes with no other vehicles or persons present to either side or rear of vehicle. We were in a small line of traffic, 4 passenger cars from our position to the traffic light. Other problems noted by Mitsubishi dealership before rear window glass failure are excessive movement/popping of rear glass at speeds of 50+ mph. Pulling/stretch marks in fabric of top around rear window glass, fabric had begun to "shrink" upwards on the passenger and drivers side of top above front windows exposing interior of top. Upon inspection of the items by Mitsubishi dealer they considered all of the above items normal wear on convertable top. Mitsubishi denied warranty claim saying that "window glass does not just break on it's own".
