Outside temp was about 27 degress, I was sitting in the drivers seat with the door open warming up the vehicle (rear defrost was on for a while then off), and all of the sudden the rear glass just exploded. Anyone have this happen before? It did have aftermarket tint as well.

That happens a lot with vans, I can't remember the details of how and why but when you go to get the glass replaced the tech will explain it better than I

if you have full coverage insurance they will replace it free. its a safety hazard.

Must heat up too fast or something. Kinda like throwing hot water on a cold window
