Yep.. It really sucks. It looked like it got jammed and then just exploded. Got an appointment from 9-1PM tomorrow to get it replaced... Like 172 bucks. Just another thing that went wrong today. I'm sure something happened inside the door when I slammed it from being so pissed off that the new HD fan clutch didn't work, and my car was overheating... This is so fuggin' http://www.fuel:taco:.net/forum/images/smiles/gayno.gif

i work in an auto manufacturer that installs glass in car doors. another associate had a peice of glass glass explode right after it was placed in the track. didnt even tighten the bolts.

sucks when you have to vacume all the peices out.

When you say "exploded",do you mean that the window just shattered and broke up when you rolled it up?Is this a power window or manual roll up window?

Regardless as to which type,this would definately suck bigtime.
I`ve never heard of this happening,and $172.00 to fix...ouch.

i was talkin to a girl once in her appt. parking lot, and this old caprice wagon's passenger side window just exploded out of nowhere - i didnt sleep for a week trying to figure out how that could possible happen - maybe somebody shot it out aiming for me lol hope not - that was like 2 years ago -

My brother had a Honda accord that did that when he rolled it up. Turned out the motor limit switch or whatever didn't engage and it kept forcing it upward (with enough force to apparently shatter it.)

It's a power window... I just rolled it up.. and it stopped about half way and I heard it crack, then it blew up... Glass everywhere... In my shoes, in the door... everywhere on the ground. It sucks... When it rains, it pours I guess

I know... It was stupid... I'm not even mad about the window.. but I was furious over burning up the Proform fan controller and the HD Clutch fan not working... That's what seriously angered me
