Corvette C7 Stingray design flaws and inferior parts failures continue to give owners massive headaches

The more complex cars become, the more parts there are to break and give their owners solid headaches. 

When companies that run their business on the cheap try to compete with others, using more complex and involved designs, loaded with electronically controlled features, this is a certain recipe for disaster.

+General Motors of course has a great track record regarding failures and self inflicted wounds.  Thus, it is no wonder that the truly overly complex convertible top design used on the Stingray continues to give owners more problems than benefits.  Of course this is a perfect 2fer.  Not only extra weight but a disaster waiting to happen as well.

Until now, the failures related to the convertible top typically were limited to malfunctioning switch that out of the blue refused to operate the top or worked half way before stopping.

However, things are getting more interesting now, resulting in rear windows exploding right behind the formerly happy owners.  Hopefully GM will be able to determine the cause and grace all the owners with another recall followed by shortage of parts to fix the problem?  No doubt this is exactly what will happen.
