defrost shatters rear windshield on db9

This morning it was 42 degrees out (had left the car outside). so i jump into my 05'DB9 start her up and switch on the rear defrost.

while i'm waiting for the car to warm up a few min into this i hear a loud pop and WTF is what i say. the rear windshield shattered. anyone else ever have this happen or hear of this.

I called up My AM dealer (closest to rochester ny is toronto) and spoke to service they never heard of it so I called another dealership (lake forest in chicago) and their service guy had this happen once as well, and said AM covered it under warranty.

thoughts or personal expiriences?

it happens and you are not the only one. typically the windshields "explode" in colder climates. dont worry, they will take care of you.
