Default just tint my windows yesterday

but it had bubbles the guy said its doing it because of the weather. He said after 3 days it should go away. If it doesnt i can take it back to him, but should i just take it back and tell him i dont want tint any more and get a refund and go to another place? I didnt know they only offer a 3 year warranty and this other place gave me a lifetime warranty i guess thats good till the place closes down. help?

Don't worry, the bubbles should subside... they are just moisture that is built up from the application process. if you want to help speed it up, take a hair dryer and turn it on hot and go back and forth over the tint, carefully to help heat it up some... This cold weather will slow the evaporation process. After you warm the tint for a few minutes, you should see a difference. Give it time! DEF don't roll the windows down for at least a week...

Your fine. I towed 6,000 pounds with my truck the first day I got it and throughout the entire break in if that makes you feel any better.

Isn't exhaust smoke coming from other cars also at 40 degrees? Don't worry.

Man, this is your 1st vehicle! The exhaust that you see is moisture coming out when the vehicle is cold. It usually goes away after it warms up. If it's real cold outside...it will stick around when you come to stops. Relax...enjoy your truck.

No such thing as worrying too much Enjoy your ride, what you are seeing is water vapor in the exhaust condensing, just like when the Packers and Jets were breathing during the game tonight. It is always best to question things you don't know, than just assume it is okay, because some day it will be something legitimate, that needs attention.

Getting on it during break-in a couple times won't hurt it, read your owner's manual, and then do some internet research and learn what the break-in period is all about, seating rings, allowing plane bearings to wear in, then it all makes sense.

Enjoy your new truck.
