Ah. Well... I'm an idiot or blind, or just a blind idiot... But thank you for taking that picture and posting it up. That button is RIGHT THERE on my steering wheel and I've never seen it, I swear. Hopefully, I've now had my idiot moment of the day taken care of, since you can't have more than...

But is there any way to turn it completely OFF? I don't even want alerts, and can't find a way to just turn the whole damn system off. You have a button on the steering wheel for that? What does it look like?

The tint shop paid for the replacement of the windshield and back glass after they scratched it. The new glass is OEM parts.

@Doug Watson It's hard to get a picture, since it's just not super obvious unless you're driving the car. Mostly, I drive alone, so not exactly possible to get a picture in this situation! I'll check and see if there's anything on the glass, though I doubt it.

Just had the windshield and back glass replaced on my nearly new car (to see why, go here). The back glass has moderate to severe distortion throughout that seems like it's related to the defroster wires. The original glass did not have this, either before or after tinting (and I drove it a lot...

Odd... mine is absolutely not blue, and I've been through every menu in the system and there is nowhere to change it. :frown:

How are your infotainment and instrument cluster graphic colors blue? I haven't found anything that will change mine from orange...

Sorry about that... :sadface: I am insisting that they replace the glass, but I'm disinclined to let them touch the car again, as it's clear they have no respect for customers' vehicles. And really, the tint on the side windows is fine, and I don't see a reason to have it stripped and then...

Well, I don't have a check in hand just yet, and they may be trying to balk after saying they would pay for it two days ago. Also, now I've discovered more damage to the steering wheel as well; it's a gouge or cut from a razor or blade of some sort (which is another $2,000 cost for replacement...

Just heard from the tint shop, and they're paying for replacement of the windshield and back glass. They are refusing to try to apply the front tint again, because they don't want to end up back in the same place they are now, with having to replace a windshield. Seems to me that means they...

I've finally realized that this is all worse than I imagined it could be. After the shop had the car the first time, I noticed a vertical scratch on the back window, about 5" long, just outside the dot matrix at the top on the driver's side. I couldn't figure out how it got there, and I'd...

That's an excellent point! Will do that for sure. I shouldn't have to pay some other tint shop to remove the mess before fixing it! I did love that color!

Had the front window redone on Friday. It's not drying as quickly since we've had overcast days since, but it's still not looking good. Even more bubbles everywhere, including in the main windshield tint, though the strip at the top is straight this time. The shop did refund $150 for the hassle...

The shop redid the tint on the windshield and the drivers side door today. I got it home and realized that the tint strip on the top of the windshield is crooked, and very noticeably so. How do three people look at the work and not see something like that? Apparently I chose really poorly when I...

I get that, but the point is, they shouldn't leave it such a mess inside. At least, IMO they shouldn't. And sure, the water that's in the trim will evaporate, but soap? Eh, just seems like more attention to detail should be the goal. Makes sense. I've sat the car on the driveway for part of...

Interesting; the tint shop specifically said NOT to leave it in the sun, and didn't say a thing about music, though maybe it's different in summer? It may be too late at this point to put it out in the sun during the day until Tuesday, when I'm dropping the car off in the evening for them to...

One more question for everyone: Is it normal or expected that the installers will leave drips of whatever glass cleaner or solutions they use all over the interior? There were drips all down below the inserts on the door panels, so obviously liquids were not wiped up fast enough and got in and...

That makes my $650 sound not so out of whack, so thanks for that! I'm in Georgia (though not Atlanta, thankfully).

Well... maybe I should have shopped around even more than I did... :frown: Too late for that now. Thanks for the feedback. This is all doubly irritating because of how many trips to this place I've made, and will still have to make, to get this done right, especially considering that it's 25+...

@roadpilot @24grabbergt @Sf22giants Since y'all were so helpful, I now have another quandary I'd like opinions about: Took it to shop #2, and I had to take it back the very next day so that they could get air bubbles out of the edges of the back and front window in spots. Also, over a week...
