Don't call customer service about warranties. They can't help with warranty emails. We only handle warranty claims through email.
Policy
- Our warranty protects against defects in materials and craftsmanship.
- You're eligible to receive a replacement cover multiple times throughout the ownership period, as long as you're the original purchaser and still possess it. The warranty doesn't transfer to others and is exclusively for the original buyer.
- The warranty starts from when you bought the product and works on a prorated schedule. This means that if you need a replacement cover after 6 months, it won't be free. Check the prorated schedule below to see how much it will cost.
- Please ensure to keep your receipt or order ID.
Important Points
- When you send photos to the warranty team, make sure it's well-lit, clear, and focused on the issue.
- You can't avoid the warranty process by buying a new car cover during an active claim and then asking for a refund. No refunds will be given for new cover purchases related to a warranty claim.
- You need to provide the order number for us to honor the warranty. If you don't, the warranty won't apply.
- The warranty doesn't cover damage caused by mistreating or misusing the cover.
- Damage from very strong winds isn't covered by the warranty.
- Damage from exposure to chemicals isn't covered by the warranty.
- Damage from pest infestation or animals is not covered by the warranty.
Warnings
- Don't cover a wet vehicle. Make sure it's completely dry before putting on the cover.
- Let your car cool down after driving before covering it. Covering a hot car can melt the cover and leave imprints on the paint.
- Make sure the body of your vehicle is not excessively hot before installing the cover. It's best to do this in the morning when the car has cooled down and hasn't been in the sun for a while. If the car is too hot, the cover can leave marks on the paint because it might melt and leave an imprint.
- If you've waxed your car, ensure that the vehicle is fully dry before installing the cover.
- Close all windows, including sun/moon roofs, securely before installing the cover. For convertibles, raise the top before covering.
- If your vehicle has been recently painted, consult with your painter or body shop before covering it. It's best to wait until the paint has fully dried to avoid potential damage.
- Extended use of covers may cause damage to older vehicles, lacquer paint, or pre-damaged clear coat. We're not responsible for such damage.
- Avoid using a cover on a vehicle that has been wrapped, as it may cause deterioration and discoloration.
- Car covers are not made to protect against hail.
- Our liability is limited to the original purchase price of the product. We're not responsible for any damage that may occur to your vehicle.
Prorated Schedule:
During the initial six (6) months from the purchase date, we'll provide a free replacement for any cover that meets our warranty conditions. Covers damaged due to Acts of God, such as severe winds, pest infestations, floods, fires, and storms, are not eligible for free replacement. Instead, they qualify for a 70% discount off the original price when the warranty is initiated within the first 12 months.
