You've seen the videos of a tornado that just sucks the windows out of a home, right? Well yesterday I was traveling down a Texas highway and suddenly my Transit began shaking violently. I looked in my side mirror to see what was going on just in time to witness the passenger side cargo window being sucked off of the cargo door and fly to the side of the road. It was a cool clear morning and the roadway, thankfully, was clear behind me or someone could have been killed. The vehicle is wrapped so it was even more "stuck" in place. The gaping hole caused so much wind it has also caused the driver side cargo door panel to "push out". I discovered that panel is not at all attached at the bottom to the cargo door. Its now parked in my driveway awaiting a tow because I don't ever want to get in the violently shaking vehicle again. It only has 13000 miles on the odometer. Curious to see if anyone else has had this type of experience.

Ouch. Sorry to hear this!

Can you recall if you had any other windows open at all? I'm not looking to find blame... not at all... just thinking I might try a different scenario when driving in TX! 0

So any idea what caused the violent shaking?
