#1 of 5 2008 Rogue Window exploding by romns121921 May 18, 2009 (8:54 am)
I didn't know if anyone else has had this issue. This weekend my passenger side window exploded while we were driving on the highway. There weren't any big trucks around that would have "thrown" a stone. Just wondered if anyone else had this issue.

Replying to: romns121921 (May 18, 2009 8:54 am) That has got to be scary. Can you tell whether it was directed inward or outward, i.e. into your Rogue or out of it?   tidester, host SUVs and Smart Shopper Replies to this message: romns121921 (May 18, 2009 10:36 am) tidester (May 18, 2009 12:42 pm)

Replying to: tidester (May 18, 2009 10:29 am) The majority came in on me, but there are chips/scrapes all down the side of the vehicle from the glass, so not all of it came in. Replies to this message: tidester (May 18, 2009 12:42 pm)

Replying to: romns121921 (May 18, 2009 10:36 am) I was thinking that a pressure differential might have triggered the break but if you have glass more or less equally divided between inside and out then I don't think it's a factor. (Chips and scrapes on the outside suggest a substantial amount of glass went outward.) It sounds like the glass simply shattered (it should not!) either due to internal defects or some applied stress (misaligned mountings or somesuch).   Has anyone else here experienced side windows shattering like this?   tidester, host SUVs and Smart Shopper

Replying to: romns121921 (May 18, 2009 8:54 am) Three weeks ago we bought a 2009 Nissan Rogue. Yesterday, the rear, right window exploded while it was parked in the driveway. We are expecting a baby, and had the base of the car seat installed in the backseat -- it was a horrible feeling to see it full of shards of glass. It will only cost me $212 to fix, but I am going to contact Nissan (1-800-647-7261), and am looking into the Lemon Law statutes.
