Does LLumar provide warranty for bubbling issues?
4 Answers
LLumar offers a variety of automotive film products with warranty periods ranging from 5 years to lifetime. Here are the details: 1. Quality: If non-human-induced quality issues occur after LLumar film installation, bring the [LLumar Electronic Warranty Certificate] or [Paper Warranty Certificate] to the authorized LLumar installation shop where the service was performed. The staff will inspect the issue, and if confirmed as a quality problem, the shop will provide free replacement or repair. 2. Authorized Service: All LLumar authorized service centers must have professional installers (certified through LLumar Asia-Pacific Technical Training Academy). LLumar products are installed by professionals, ensuring reliable product protection with excellent service and manufacturer warranty.
I recently had my car tinted with LLumar film, but soon noticed bubbles forming on the rear window, which really worried me. I checked with the shop, and they said the warranty generally covers bubble issues, but it depends on the cause. If it's due to defects in the film itself or material issues, the manufacturer will replace or repair it for free. However, if it's caused by my own scratches or improper installation, it might not be covered under warranty. Bubbles are quite common and can result from poor installation, trapped moisture during application, or using low-quality car wash solutions that corrode the surface. I recommend taking photos as evidence first, then contacting the shop where you bought it or LLumar's customer service—they'll verify the records. To prevent further issues, avoid washing the car right after exposure to strong sunlight and regularly inspect the film. If addressed promptly, most cases can be resolved without unnecessary costs.
I've owned several cars and have applied LLumar window film to all of them, encountering bubbling issues as well. Regarding warranty, LLumar has its own terms, such as a 5-10 year warranty period, with bubbles being one of the quality issues covered. Common causes include poor installation techniques, trapped moisture, or chemical reactions from using inferior products. If the bubbles don't damage the car's paint, the manufacturer or authorized shops will inspect them; if it's their responsibility, they'll replace the film at no cost. However, if the damage is caused by using hard objects to clean, the warranty may be void. I find the warranty quite valuable as it saves a lot of hassle. To prevent issues, choose a reputable shop for installation, avoid intense sun exposure for two weeks after application, and regularly clean potential bubble spots with a soft cloth. If bubbles appear, don't delay—address them promptly to avoid affecting visibility and aesthetics.
Does Llumar film warranty cover bubbles? It depends. I've used their window film and inquired about after-sales service when bubbles appeared. The warranty typically covers bubbling issues, provided the film hasn't been damaged by human error or improper installation. Check your purchase receipt or warranty card for the film - the coverage terms are listed there. Contact the dealership or manufacturer's hotline; they'll ask you to send photos or bring the vehicle for inspection. If eligible, you'll get free repair or replacement. Otherwise, you'll need to buy new film for a few hundred RMB. Remember: don't pop bubbles carelessly to avoid damaging the film surface.
