Ask them to give you a letter saying that they are refusing to rectify the fault and if it fails at speed and the sunroof detaches they will accept responsibility for any accident. Might focus their attention to give LR a kick.

Took mine to the dealer and they are going to replace because of the carcking problem. Problem is the sunroof they got in to replace it with also had cracks!
Will have to wait for a few weeks now while LR check their stocks. Seems to me thi is a common problem and if there are replacement sunroofs with the same defect then it is not age of vehicle related but probably on all of them!
Will let you know what the delaer finds out.....MG

Cracked sunroof
I checked my sunroof and found cracks a couple of weeks ago. Visited Dealership and pointed out the cracks, they said they had never heard of the problem before. Took some piccies to send to Land Rover. New sunroof fitted last three days on warranty ----- result.
