• Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

Broken 2nd sunroof

So almost 3 weeks ago a branch fell onto my car and broke the 2nd sunroof. I didn't initially notice until I sat in my car. Shut the door and heard crunching sounds which I soon found out was glass falling down. Figured I'd make this post to document the timeline for this repair to be completed. My insurance has been good to work with and it's in the shop now. There's no liner or framing damage other then the sunroof. I've learned that this is a unit, not just a piece of glass. So glass shops won't touch it. The repair involves removing the top liner and replacing the sunroof. At this time the replacement part is ordered and it is on back order with no ETA.

Anyone else have to replace one of these yet? I have a 23 SX-P

As of late least week the estimated completion date is Mid December. That's the units promise by date to the repair shop. So appears to be roughly 2 months to get this replacement piece. I'll provide another update once the cars back so if this happens to anyone else you'll have a timeframe to reference.
