Driving 20 mph, on a flat surface, no oncoming traffic, my rear window spontaneously shattered. I stopped the truck to get out and look at it, and cant figure out what happened. Took the truck to the local Chevy dealer and told them what happened, with no luck. Went to safelite and they said they get alot of similar vehicles with the same issue. Nothing hit the window, nothing touched the window and there was no previous damage to the window. Just blew outward on its own.

Remote started my vehicle and after about 8 minutes inserted ignition key and began driving at less than 10 to 12 mph. Within 2 to 3 minutes began to notice sparks and smoke from the back seat area and immediately pulled over with car still running. Upon inspection found window defroster sparking and emitting smoke. Front passenger turned off rear defroster and fire / smoke / sparking stopped. Defroster was on because vehicle had remote started and not by operator action. I'm effort to get smoke out - briefly opened rear slider and upon closing a couple seconds later rear passenger tempered defrost glass cracked. Experienced fire, smoke as well as a broken rear passenger side window as described by the Canadian recall authority under N192220470. This Canadian recall only affects trucks that are physically located in Canada and isn't covered by VIN. Apparently, there has not been an equivalent recall for this rear defroster issue made in the U.S. the recall number

As I took my vehicle for a front windshield replacement the window tech took me out to the shop to show me the problem. The front window was on top of the lower cowl seal and the window was a an original window the crack came from the window being on top of the cowl

Silverado 2500 4WD 8-cyl

  • 1,000 miles
2015 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 hd. During a recent trip to southern Indiana while towing rv we encountered a heavy rain, not as heavy as a normal Florida heavy rain, the wipers on full. Could not clear the windshield enough to see anything during mid day. This happen on a two lane state road, where thankfully no traffic either way, if this had been on the interstate hwy. We just exited 10 minutes earlier, this would have been fatal. Nether I and my wife could not see anything at all, I had to look out the window to have any visibility at all. There is a windshield or wiper design problem here. If it was not for my 2 million mile truck experience I most likely would not be making this report. Had this been an inexperienced driver in most likely would have been fatal. I also own a 2000 Chevy Silverado. I have driven this truck to Florida every year in some real rain storms, that make these midwest storms look like spring showers, and never once unable to see during real heavy storm day or night. Now I will hold on to my old truck till this defect is corrected. Please take this seriously, I fear driving when rain forecast at night. I have never side lined my semi for weather even in total white out snow storms which I could see better than a little rain on the windshield of this 2015 Chevy. Thank you sincerely [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
