In April, I returned to my vehicle in my employer’s parking lot in Cranberry Township, PA and found the rear window completely shattered, with glass both inside and outside the vehicle. I immediately contacted my Honda service center and was told there were no reported issues or recalls. Because the vehicle was unsafe to drive, I contacted my insurance company to arrange the repair. My employer reviewed the security footage and confirmed that no one approached the vehicle between the time I arrived and the damage was discovered. Once it was determined that there was no vandalism, accident, or outside cause, I contacted Honda Customer Service. I was then told that Honda was aware of a safety issue involving the rear window, that Honda would cover the replacement cost, and that I should submit a reimbursement claim. I submitted the AutoGlass Now receipt for $441.76 and my credit card statement. I paid a $100 deductible, and State Farm paid the remaining balance. Neither State Farm nor I should bear costs resulting from Honda’s acknowledged rear window issue. I requested that Honda promptly reimburse my $100 deductible and reimburse State Farm. It is a battle. The incident created a major safety concern. I am grateful it occurred while the vehicle was parked rather than on a major highway with family members inside, where sudden rear window failure could have posed a serious hazard. Still, I was left after work with an unsafe vehicle 40 minutes from home, had to cover the rear window in case of rain, arrange for my sister to pick me up, and wait several days for the repair to be completed. It is most disturbing that this issue was already known and could have been fixed before this catastrophic failure. Something should be done about this before lives are lost. Also, when reaching out to the Honda service center, they don't acknowledge the issue and direct you to your insurance company so that Honda is not responsible for the full cost of the repair.
