It happened to me around 2 weeks ago or so.
Basicly i was driving on the highway listening to my euro trance music having the volume half way on stock system.
Nobody was driving beside me or even close, also i was in the right lane since i had to get off soon. When all of the sudden my rear drivers side window just shaders!! I was like WTF?!!
The only thing that was holding it is the tint.
Maybe some rock or something flew from other side of the highway, i will never know. But it sucked.....cause it cost me $244 to get the new one done. BALLZZZ

Were all the windows up? AC on?
I'm just wondering if you had the rear down that might have been causing that horrible throbbing.
Through in a truck passing to disrupt the harmonics and pop! goes the window.
If it was rock, you should see trace of an impact point.
Other than that Nik, your windows are weak dude, weak.

maybe the window committed suicide from prolonged exposure to Euro trance?

Our Escape did the same thing but it was the rear window. We were in the country and nothing around to hit it. It just happened but luckily glass claims will not affect your insurance rates. Unfortunately for me the deductable was about the same cost as the new window and the buggers put the rear wiper on crooked...meaning the wiper did not lay flat when it was turned off.
Time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time.

exact same thing happened to me while driving down the queensway in my old golf 9-10 years ago.
I was driving by a golf course though, so I think somebody didnt yell four loud enough.
