Tint shop scratched my window


Recommended Posts

Posted

Alright I need some opinions on what I should do. I bought a new truck a few weeks ago and had the windows tinted on the 23rd of Dec. I just took the truck back to them yesterday to fix 2 front windows that already started peeling and it was fixed under warranty. Well I wash my truck today and notice the back window has a huge scratch on it from them trimming the film. Its pretty ****ing irritating because Ive only had the truck a few weeks. What would you do in this situation? 02e3173b8fe67618d10afe477f84b98a.jpg157a10ac7bd2f38d8cb55553a709c6a3.jpg

Man, I wish my only problem was a scratch in the windoq. I just had a bedside replaced but that's a whole nother thread!

 

Anyway, I mean it wouldn't hurt to take it back there and see what they say? Otherwise you're on your own.

The main thing I want to know is do I ask for a new window? Or a full refund. Im looking for folks who have ran into this issue and what their outcome was, and how they handled it.

Give them the chance to make it right. Accidents happen.

Go back to the shop and ask them to make it right before blasting them on here. Accidents do happen like Colossus said.

blasting? I never specified what shop or where I even live for that matter. Took care of it today.

Yeah. Stating that the shop had scratched your glass and had to have your windows redone in just over a week.

 

Just saying you were quick to complain before going back to see if they would make it right.

It was more out of panic, because the business was closed NY day. But thanks for not helping and feeling

You needed to give your useless opinion. Cheers

My first opinion was common sense. Thanks for not using yours.

once again you stated an OPINION and not a resolution to a first hand experience like I was inquiring.

And you need to read a little further.

I gave you my opinion like you originally asked for. Sorry it's not what you wanted to hear. If the dealer doesn't screw my oil filter on all the way and I have some drips in my driveway I don't ask a forum what to do and tell everyone I have a problem. I'd just go to the source and get it resolved. :rant:

I find it sad you cant change your own oil. End thread

    • This is a 1/2 ton thing ONLY.  All HDs 2020-2026 have the two speed transfer case, with Autotrac as an option.     1/2 tons 2019-2026, regular 4x4s come with a single speed case (no 4LO!), and trucks with Z71 ordered, or all Trail Boss trucks come with the 2 speed case.  2 speed case is also an option on WT, and is also standard on High Country.  
    • 2013 5.3 still to this day calls for the PF48 filter.  Which as a 15psi bypass pressure.     There is a TSB, 17-NA-157 that talks about the PF-63 and PF-64 filters which have a higher bypass rating of 22psi.    TSB HERE - temp.xml   "Beginning in 2012, the oil pumps began to regulate main gallery feedback instead of pump out pressure. This means that the oil pump now does not begin to regulate until pressure is built up to the main gallery. This change reduces the amount of time it takes to provide oil to the engine bearing and lifters during extreme cold start conditions.  Main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are present on the following engine families which use Spin-on oil filters: Small Gas Engine (SGE), Large Gas Engine (LGE), High Feature (HFV6) Gen2 and Small Block Gen5 gasoline engines. These engines with the main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are factory built with an ACDelco® oil filters"   It also calls out what engines use those filters.  The gen 4 small blocks were not on that list (LMG, LC9, L9H, L92, L94, L20, L96).  Gen 5 small blocks use the higher pressure filter.          That all said...   Your 7045 Napa filter is the PF63 equivalent, with 22psi bypass.  You are already using the higher bypass pressure filter.  You CAN keep using it, you don't technically have to use it though.  
    • Do you know WHY the filter relief setting was increased to 22 psig?    When the new system goes into the second stage the pump volume ramps up considerably. It was found that the 15 psi filter bypass setting put the filter in bypass on a warm engine when the second stage was activated. Raising the filter bypass setting forced the filter to do what it designed to do. Filter. Preventing debris from circulating during high load, high rpm operation.    So next question is how did GM find this out? VLOM/lifter failures and a deep dive by Melling Corp.    Last question. Is it required? Look at it like this; a motor may be equipped with a rev limiter. But it only works if the set point in reached. That 22 psig setting only matters if the pressure differential across the filter media exceeds 15 psig during normal warm operation. Second stage kicks in around 3000-3500 rpm.    I can't answer your question because I don't know you and how you use the truck. But I think there is enough information here to let you decide for yourself. 😉
    • Probably not their first rodeo, so it should go as planned most likely.  Typically the service manager or tech doing the swap will put some seat time to shake it down after they get it all put back together.  We usually put 50-100mi before we hand them back so if something happens, its not after you get it.  A coolant leaks, oil leaks, a ground left off or loose, vibration, etc.     The new engines so far have been good?  There's been a couple that have popped out there again (the replacement engine) but most have been okay.
