What owners wrote
Parked in front of coffee shop about 3pm. Windy but warm (not hot or cold weather). Came out to find back window shattered. Insurance co. Called, will replace window w/ $250 deductible fee. No evidence of foul play involved.
The rear window on my 2011 kia soul shattered after closing the front passenger door. The door was not slammed or closed with any force and the car was parked and turned off at the time. It was lightly snowing and around 20 degrees f when the incident occurred. The window was broken from the center, but the glass bowed outward and the edges of the window had crumbled and fallen out as well.
