A:Answer Regrettably, physical damage would not be covered by the manufacturer's warranty. You can visit https://support.tcl.com/us/tclus-tv-warranty-information to find more information on our warranty requirements and limitations. With situations like this, we encourage you to check with the retailer you purchased from to see if they cover this type of issue with the TV. Additionally, if you purchased an extended warranty, you may want to reach out to see if you can file a warranty claim through the extended warranty. Furthermore, if you purchased using a credit card, some credit card companies also provide additional coverage. Hope this helps! Thank you, TCL Customer Support
