VISIBILITY/WIPER
I PARKED THE MURANO IN THE GARAGE AND CLOSED THE GARAGE DOOR THEN WENT INSIDE THE HOUSE. ABOUT 30 MINUTES LATER I HEARD A MUFFLED BOOM SOUND. I THOUGHT THE WIND WAS BLOWING FURNITURE AROUND ON MY DECK. I WENT TO CHECK THE GARAGE AND NOTICED TEMPERED GLASS ON THE FLOOR. I LOOKED AT THE LIFT GATE DOOR AND NOTICED THE ENTIRE GLASS WINDOW HAD SHATTERED INWARD. MOST OF THE GLASS WAS INSIDE THE CAR. I DON'T KNOW HOW IT HAPPENED BUT IT WAS RAINING THAT DAY AND THE TEMPERATURE HAD FALLEN. *TR
