interesting that this confirms cracked pano panels are being replaced under warranty.

It doesn't confirm ALL cases of cracking will be replaced though, it only asks under what circumstances - offroad and with car full of passengers could be considered putting the body under stress therefore possibly under those conditions would not be honoured as a warranty claim, but the owner has to claim on insurance.
