Those grids are very common to most all cars. On my old FIAT I repaired breaks in the connection with a strand of wire and solder. Had to take it out and lay it upside down on the grass so I could get the solder to flow.

Otherwise replace the rear window.

They make kits you can buy at the auto parts store to fix the grid. It's a conductive paint just like the factory grid. You use painters tape to make it straight.

You could theoretically redo an entire grid with the stuff if you needed to.
