Defects
Defects are extremely rare due to the high quality of the production process and each and every item is checked before being released by us. However, if you believe that the product that you have received is defective. Do not use the product. As soon as the product is used, there is no way to proof whether the defect was due to manufacturing or damaged by the user. Take clear macro (the flower icon on your camera) photos of the defect and send them to info@tyrewarmers.com.au and outline what you see is the problem. In most cases we will need the item returned for us to determine the problem. If the item is deemed to be faulty (due to the manufacturing of the product and not the user), we will happily replace the item. Remember the better the photo’s you can provide, the quicker we can determine the outcome.
