Kamel told Auto Evolution that he immediately reached out to Tesla, to have the car checked out by service technicians. However, he unfortunately wasn't able to bring the car in to be checked until July, due to personal obligations. When Tesla finally did see the car, they reportedly told him that the car is safe to drive and didn't fix it. Since then, Kamel has been white-knuckle driving, hoping the crack doesn't get worse with every bump and pothole in the road.

Well he can’t have been that perturbed if he put it off and accepted the mechanic’s recommendation and drove it home.
