    The product, in the report: Glass shower door

    Caller stated that the shower glass door shattered suddenly after using it. This incident occurred approximately 1hr & 30 mins later. The glass started to crack and then all the glass pieces shattered. The door was installed in the home by the original owners.

    4/7/14 The manufacturer was contacted and she was advised to contact the dealer for a free replacement but she would have to cover the cost for labor.

    Caller feels that this shower door is unsafe and should be reported.
