Our 2015 kia sorento lx with touring package was parked in our driveway when the tailgate window exploded and shattered all over the driveway. Fortunately no one was in or next to it at the time.

I had built it online 10 times & walked in -specs in hand- ready to buy. The test drive to me was a formality. That changed during the test drive. New suvs are adding huge pillars to the rear of vehicles, shrinking rear third windows, shrinking rear…
