Rear windscreen shredded with no reason

[Lip Kong Chan]

Hi, I am new in here, nice to meet you guys. I owned a F30 316i recently (this month), it is good enough for me with a small family. But I found that the fuel consumption is not as stated 7+l/100km, it is 11.5-12.5l/100km. Maybe this is cause by a low millage (300+km), hope it will improve after 2000km.

Ok. get back to the title. I found my rear windscreen cracked this morning as shown in the picture. I can't get any clues on what does really happen to my windscreen... Does this happen to any of you guys?View attachment 65877View attachment 65878View attachment 65879

Glass defect from factory? Looks like no visible damage from impact.

Definitely not normal ........ Takes quite a bit to have it shatter like that.

Was it held together by the window film (if any) ?

Sounds more like insurance cover than product warranty.....

The sun film is a great safety feature actually ..... Holds the pieces together ....
