How long between ordering the part and service appt? Just trying to gauge turnaround time for something like this.Wow, the crack has almost an identical pattern to mine. They are replacing my panel next week.
Answering my own question here. Got a call today from service center, the part is available and I am scheduled for install tomorrow. Service advisor said the problem is less so about the glass, but how it was installed with the machine putting too pressure on the glass. They have apparently rectified the issue for all future cars from the factory, but could be an issue for cars manufactured pre Feb. Hope this helpsHow long between ordering the part and service appt?

12V batteryWhy do you think that Tesla isn’t addressing the underlying cause of the glass cracks? They’ve addressed every issue in the S and X over the years. Give them a little credit.
Both have been changed since those problems with the early Model S12V battery
S door handles
'nuff said
And where is the cutpoint of what is considered early? We keep hearing about both issues still to this day.Both have been changed since those problems with the early Model S

Makes me wonder if driving a glass roof car on uneven roads, even at slow speeds, would have more glass roofs breaking due to body flex. None of my metal roof cars ever broke! High tech isn't always best!
Exactly the same pattern as the other instances (including the one on my car). The fixed it within 24 hours--luckily they had the part readily available. Good luck...This just happened to my car, two months and 3800 miles since delivery, car #41xx. Glass roof panel on backorder. They have the car, I have an S loaner, no word yet on how long it will take. I noticed the crack just after a particularly fun, spirited drive on a twisty back country road.
Upon close inspection of the glass panel fit, I noticed it was installed with the glass fitting slightly higher than the windshield on the driver side, and dipping to a low point exactly where the crack starts at the front edge.

I have similar cracks at rear passenger side near the trunk line. Will be call SC tomorrow.I had the unfortunate discovery of a large crack in my pano roof yesterday. I would estimate it is about 18" long. It seemed to appear out of nowhere. I have thoroughly looked over the area, and there is no damage (chips, dents, etc) other than the crack itself. I have only had the car 2 weeks. I am hesitant to file an insurance claim if this is possibly a defect.
I have reached out to Tesla. But, they couldn't understand why I would contact them, and all they could do is refer me to a body shop. It's unfortunate to have something like this occur 2 weeks after delivery. Ugh!
