the volkswagen jetta had a huge problem like that, the window would just drop and shatter inside the door

however, if yours "shattered" when intact.....then either someone's tire tripped a small pointy rock right at ur window at high speed, or......the bb gun thing

that would make sense too... cept... it'd have to come at like a 90degree angle... if it comes from in front of him it'd would barely exert any force on the window and would just skim the window.


I really want to know how this happened.

Although I mentioned extreme temp changes... I still see that being very rare, and needing a HUGE change in temps....
Anybody ever wash their car in 90 + degree sunny weather before? When you wash, that water hits the car at around 40-50 degrees.... thats an 40-50 degree difference in temps at least (probably more if the car has been sitting in the sun for awhile). I've never shattered a window in that scenario and I did that probably 3 times this summer.
