While driving down the freeway the back window shattered. There is no apparent reason for it. The glass also broke into slivers. I was under the impression that auto's had to had safety glass to prevent injuries? the dealer states it is tempered glass but this window shattered for no reason and then the glass splintered and fell into the car. Covering the back of the car and thank goodness that my 5 year old daughter was in the front seat or she would have been seriously injured. As it is we still had to use tape to remove the small slivers of glass from her cheek.
