#536132May 25, 1998
STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR
WE HAD THE TWO REAR WINDOWS OPEN TRAVLING FOR APP 36MILES -55MPH. THANGOT ON I75 SOUTH APP25MILES -70MPH WHEN THE WINDOW CLOSED CREATING A PRESURE SOUNDING POP. GLASS SPRED THROUGH THE TRUCK SPRAYING GLASS ON THE PASSAGER SIDE REAR SEAT AND DOWN THE SIDE OF THE TRUCK. IF A CHILD OR PASSAGER WERE IN THAT SEAT IT COULD HAVE BEEN A REAL SAFETY PROPLEM. SOME MAY TRY TO SAY IT WAS A STONE BUT WE WERE IN THE LEFT LANE GOING SOUTH AND THERE WE NO CARS NEXT TO US. THE SOUND WAS A PRESURE SOUND. I FEEL THIS IS A DEFECT AND IF IT HAPPENED TO US IT WILL HAPPEN TO OTHERS.
