Description of the problem	The rear window on my 2011 kia soul shattered after closing the front passenger door. The door was not slammed or closed with any force and the car was parked and turned off at the time. It was lightly snowing and around 20 degrees f when the incident occurred. The window was broken from the center, but the glass bowed outward and the edges of the window had crumbled and fallen out as well. The glass is very thin and looks to be of poor quality and i should not have to worry about my car windows breaking every time i exit the vehicle.
