We've Got Your Back – Install with Confidence!
At Drive Protected, we know DIY paint protection film (PPF) can feel intimidating. That's why we offer our Drive Protected Assurance. An optional add-on designed to remove the fear from your installation.
Here's the win-win: If you use the assurance and make a mistake during installation, we'll replace the affected panels entirely for free (no shipping or handling fees). But if you don't use it? You'll receive a shop gift card for the full assurance value, giving you credit toward future Drive Protected products.
This covers honest errors like cuts, stretches, or alignment issues, and we mean it: we'll replace up to an entire vehicle wrap's worth of panels if needed.

What sort of issues qualify?
To qualify, the issue must be an installation error (e.g., miscut, poor positioning, wrinkling during application). This is for honest mistakes during the DIY install process.
How do I prove my claim?
Submit your claim with clear photos or video showing the issue in the form below. This helps us verify and process quickly. (No photo/video = no replacement, as we need to confirm it's covered.)
What happens after approval?
Approved claims get free replacement panels shipped to you. If you don't use the assurance, you'll receive a shop gift card for the full assurance value instead.
What Drive Protected Assurance Does NOT Cover
To keep things fair and sustainable, Drive Protected Assurance focuses strictly on installation errors we can help fix. It does not include:
Contamination
Contamination under the film (dust, debris, etc.) We can't control your workspace environment.
Moisture Bubbles
Moisture bubbles left behind after install (see our Training Academy for tips on removing them safely).
Improper Mixing
Improper mixing or use of slip/tack solution (e.g., adding alcohol, which can damage adhesive).
Lifting
Any lifting or edge issues after the initial 24-hour post-install window (post-heat edges properly, check the "How to Post Heat Edges" video in the Training Academy).
