Rear windshield spontaneously shattered and fell into back of vehicle. No external event caused the shatter…it just happened with no outside cause. No rocks or bullets found inside the car, just broken glass.

I sat down in my vehicle closed the door and the back window shattered.

Rear windshield shattered on its own.

while driving home, I came to a red light. The rear windshield of the vehicle suddenly exploded then soon shattered without any impact. No prior damage or warning signs were present. This poses a significant safety risk.

On January 23rd 2026, my rear window shattered while parked in the parking lot at work. I have video footage from my job’s security cameras which confirms there were no external forces involved nor, thankfully, no one was as in the vehicle at the time it occurred. This occurred while the vehicle was parked; it spontaneously shattered. The back windshield could have unexpectedly exploded while my children were in the vehicle, and the flying glass could have injured my children. The windshield has since been replaced, but there have been no issues to occur since the initial incident. At the time of the incident, I contacted the local police to file a police report. A certified Nissan dealers did inspect my windshield, and the Nissan Warranty group did not replace the windshield citing that I was over the 36,000 miles warranty (42967 miles). The service rep was helpful during the process and was even surprised that the warranty group denied the repair, since I was not far over the 36,000 miles. I had to pay out of pocket to replace my windshield and to also cover my rental for the time while I was waiting to hear back from the warranty group. I had to leave my vehicle at the dealership during this time. A total of 33 days, which was an expense I could not afford but I needed my transportation back. My insurance company did not cover any portion of the claim since it was a manufacturer failure. There were no warning, odd noises or damage to the windshield prior to it shattering. There is an active lawsuit against Nissan for not performing a recall on this defect, and it is a known defect.

Vehicle parked in driveway. Entire rear window shattered spontaneously. Discovered the damage when I went to drive it again. Simple google search shows it is a known issue with 21-25 model year Nissan Rogues

At about 9:40 a.m. on January 5, 2026, the rear window shattered. The incident occurred on I-26 northbound, about 10 miles North of Charleston, SC. Temperature was about 50 degrees. No road hazard. No throw rock or road debris. And we were not near any overpass. Just a loud bang and the window failed. Two holes were created and the rest of the window was completely crazed. No foreign object was found inside the car, only fragments of broken glass. Our safety was never at risk. I maintained speed and pulled into the first rest area to check the damage.

My wife [XXX] ) was traveling in her 2024 Nissan Rouge at highway speed on her way to work on 1/5/26, in Southeast Alabama, no defroster on, or other car in sight. While traveling her rear windshield randomly busted into a thousand pieces. She immediately notified myself [XXX] ) and the local Sheriffs Office, first believing someone had shot at her car. After deputies arrived and a thorough investigation, revealed that fortunately no one had shot at the car. That it appeared to be a random flaw/defect with the back glass windshield. They also noted that that a similar incident occurred last week mid morning, with a gentleman in a same make and model rouge, as he was traveling, busted without warning. I attempted to call dealership, but they send unbothered and informed me nothing could be done due to no active recall. Upon my own investigation today, I have noted and located many instances of the same occurring in similar models, and even some class actions suits potentially in the works. Please review this with the correct persons and hopefully find some safe resolve. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

ON CHRISTMAS DAY 2025 AROUND NOON MY 2024 NISSAN ROGUE WAS PARKED IN THE GARAGE AS ALWAYS. GARAGE TEMPERATURE WAS ABOUT 45 F. I OPENED THE REAR HATCH AND HEARD A CRACKLING SOUND. WHEN I CLOSED THE HATCH THE GLASS EXPLODED INTO A MILLION PIECES. CLEARLY THERE MUST HAVE BEEN A MANUFACTURER DEFECT IN THE GLASS FOR THIS TO OCCUR. CONTACTED DEALER, THEY TOLD ME THAT THIS IS NOT A RECALL ISSUE NOR IS IT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. HOWEVER, AFTER CHECKING WITH SOME OFF-SITE AUTHORITY, THEY SAID THAT SINCE THE CAR WAS SO NEW THAT NISSAN WOULD MAKE AN EXCEPTION AND PAY FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THE GLASS. LATER THEY SAID THAT SINCE IT HAD MORE THAN 36,000 MILES THEY WOULD NOT PAY FOR IT AFTER ALL. HOWEVER THEY DID SAY THAT THEY WOULD "SPLIT THE COST" WITH ME. I ASKED HOW MUCH MY SHARE OF THAT COST WOULD BE, AND WAS TOLD $480. THIS WAS THE EXACT PRICE QUOTED BY SAFECO TO COME TO MY HOUSE AND REPAIR IT ON THE SPOT. THIS A VERY COMMON ISSUE IN THE 2021-2024 NISSAN ROGUES. THERE IS A CLASS ACTION SUIT AGAINST NISSAN ABOUT THIS ISSUE. AT LEAST IN MY SITUATION I WAS PARKED WHEN IT EXPLODED BUT HAD I BEEN DRIVING THAT GLASS FLYING COULD HAVE BEEN A MUCH WORSE SITUATION. I JUST WANT NISSAN TO OWN UP TO THIS AND COVER THE REPAIR. I ALSO WANT TO MAKE OTHERS AWARE OF THIS KNOWN PROBLEM.

Rear windshield/window spontaneously shattered and then fell apart after remote-starting in freezing (below 32⁰F) temperatures. I have photos. Nissan says there's nothing they can do (even with the expensive bumper to bumper warranty we paid for). If this had happened while we were driving my family could've been hurt by flying glass.

On 12/16/25 at approximately 6:30am central time, the rear back glass spontaneously shattered while driving to work. The outside temperature was below 30 degrees causing some frost build up. I turned on the rear defrost, and within a few minutes, I heard a loud pop and then a cracking, crumbling like noise and looked back to see the glass was completely shattered.

Rear window shattered spontaneously ~11/24/25. It was replaced by an approved glass company (insurance) and it again shattered spontaneously ~12/24/25 and was again replaced.

On November 3, 2025, the rear window spontaneously shattered. The vehicle was parked under the carport under cover at home and was not in motion.

While at work with my new car (I bought it the day before), I was sitting in my car and heard a pop. When I looked behind me, the whole windshield had shattered but not fallen out of the frame yet. Little by little pieces kept falling. I had it repaired that day in order to keep the vehicle functional. There were no warnings previously. I still have the receipt for the replacement window and I have pictures that show the window damage.

rear tailgate window exploded for no reason. i work for a fleet company and we have had this happen on at least 8 nissan rogues some in winter some in summer. Glass being blown out is extremely frightening while driving and could increase the risk of a crash. its also a safety issue with glass entering the passenger compartment. This has been reproduced 100s of times. there's plenty of online forums where other rogue owners have experienced the same issue.
