LISTEN: Nissan Sued Over Rear Windshields That Can Spontaneously Explode

Eric Sorensen

A pair of drivers filed a class action lawsuit against Nissan, alleging that its Rogue vehicle’s rear windshields can spontaneously explode while parked and in motion, causing shards of glass to fly through the cars. The complaint claimed that Nissan knew about the defect in 2021 to 2025 Rogue vehicles but failed to notify owners or initiate a recall.

The lawsuit states that the rear windshields can fail before the end of the expected lifespan and within the vehicles’ three-year, 36,000-mile warranty. However, multiple drivers said Nissan refuses to cover repairs, claiming the damage results from ordinary wear and tear.
