HEADLIGHT GLASS SHATTERED FOR NO REASON AFTER OWNING FOR ONE WEEK. NOTE THERE IS ALREADY A RECALL ON THIS GLASS BUT MANUFACTURER CLAIMS THAT THIS UNIT WAS MANUFACTURED AFTER THE WINDOW OF THE RECALL SO IT COULD NOT HAVE BEEN AFFECTED. BUT I HAVE CONFIRMED THAT THIS UNIT DOES HAVE THE DEFECTIVE GLASS IN THE HEADLIGHTS, MADE OF NON-TEMPERED GLASS AND ARE PRONE TO SHATTERING. SAEHR04DIS/H11KY122LVOLDOT KAPER II IS THE DEFECTIVE GLASS IN MY VEHICLE. RECALL # 170720REV THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD PROBABLY EXPAND THE DATES OF THE RECALL. I UNDERSTAND THAT THERE IS AT LEAST ONE OTHER VEHICLE INVOLVED.
