 Description of the problemI had just picked up 250 pieces of chicken from giant eagle to feed the homeless at the ywca and placed the boxes in the back of my vehicle. As i drove down the street the window began to fog so i turned on the defrost. Within minutes of turning on the defrost, the window shattered into pieces. I ended up having to throw away over 100 pieces of chicken, but luckily no one was hurt. I have called the dealership and filed a complaint with the corporate office, but they say they cannot assist. After speaking with candice at gmc, @866-790-3600 ext 5923331, i was told that the extended warranty i purchased does not cover glass. I bough the car used almost a year ago, purchased the extended warranty to replace the bumper to bumper coverage, so why doesn't it cover glass? What is even more frightening to me is how does a window just shatter? This is a defect that needs to be address and this should be covered by gmc. I have researched and found that this has happened in other gmc vehicles and perhaps this needs to be a class action law suit before it will be properly addressed.
