Had one of the scariest moments of my life last night. Driving on a freeway with my son in the back seat. The rear glass got foggy, so I turned the defroster on. My defrost cable was very poorly soldered, and almost falling off. I addressed this common issue a few times when was taking my Jeep for services before, and the dealership always promised to order me a new glass but never did. So a few seconds later after turning on the defrost we both feel a strong burning smell and in my mirror I saw a smog coming in from the spot where defrost cable barely touches the glass. Turned off the defrost immediately and less than ten seconds later a loudest BUM and my rear glass blows in pieces in the middle of freeway speed moving, leaving the tailgate glass shocks hanging in the air. My immediate fear was how bad did my son get injured in the back seat. Fortunately he didn't seem to have visible injures but got scared as hell.
So the question is now how do I go about it to have Jeep service be responsible for the explosion and finally replace my rear glass and how long would it take?
