make sure you get a rep assigned and let them know it’s a warranty/lemon situation. That gets them moving rather quickly.

Mine is now added to the list. Windshield, started at the top in the middle 45 degrees downwards stops in driver’s line of view. I drove about 80 miles and I thought the crack would travel but it did not.
Drove on Monday, parked in garage glass fine, this morning glass is broke.

Does anybody know what the lead time will be getting it replaced?

As of last week my dealer’s parts department told me there were no windshields in North America. Orders take 6-8 weeks with no promises.

What about replacing with a 992 Carrera windshield?

The only concern I would have are the blacked out areas around the mirror mount as there are model specific sensors that could be compromised.

What has been the groups’ experience with windshield mounted data devices and cameras?

First, make sure the event allows for suction mount. In the past I have seen groups that will only allow a hard-mounted device. That said, a good suction mount should be fine. You can tether the device to the rear view mirror with a zip-tie for additional security.

Update. Porsche replaced my cracked driver side window under warranty. Porsche Newport Beach. Took a while to get the part.

glad you got it worked out . They declined my case sadly. So angry over it all. Dealer is horrific! West Broward Porsche is horrible

After 4 long months I got my driver side window and my driver side small window in the rear fixed …. All was covered under warranty!

🙌🙌 I’m still rolling around with a shattered quarter panel

After getting the new window just last week the problem still persists it’s only a matter of time before I’ll be back @the dealership to get a new window…

what do you mean? it's broken again?

How has Porsche not communicated a bulletin on this. Clearly a design flaw

agreed. It’s totally unfair that some customers get free windows, while others pay.
