I was driving on the interstate on a very cold morning, i was in the right lane, no one was even around me and all of a sudden i hear a load pop, i looked over & my passengers side, 'vent window' had shattered into a million pieces. it did stay in tact but honda dealer says something must have hit it. i personally think the vent blowing the warm air on the cold window effected it. this may be a little window but it's not cheap to fix. i am wondering if there have been any other complaints regarding this... *tr
