Description of the problem | I have a safety issue that i'm not sure what steps i should take in resolving this. Here's what had happen: last sunday 6-21-15, my husband and i was working in the garden and we heard a loud pop, approx. 30 feet from us was my truck and the passenger back window bowed out with breakage of glass. We were in shock! Nothing was around the truck, birds, people, etc.. I took pictures before we did anything. I searched on the web and found this is a common problem (different types of vehicles). I would like to see if there is a investigation or recall on a situation like this. It concerns me because if i had been driving, my passengers (grand child) this would have been a dangerous situation plus the intense sound would had caused an accident. I'm not sure who would be responsible for this? Could you please send me some feed back on what i can and can not do in resolving this. Thank you in advance. Sincerely, a concern citizen |
