i only had my car for 40days and i noticed few super small bubble pass side window
It may be too late now. Typically these issues can be remedied within the first 2-3 weeks. Also helps to let the new tint bake in the sun the first week. Left mine out when possible.

I've had mine about 3 weeks. Before that it was at the dealership but not sure when they installed it. There's a bubble that's about 1/4" long and thin like a line right in the middle. I think the dealership just did a shoddy job of installing the tint. Oh well, at least now I have an excuse to get all my windows to match and to get some darker/better tint.

Sounds like a crease and poor install and tint. Here's some tint suggestion.

Ceramic:
3M Crystalline
Llumar CTX
Formula 1 Pinnacle (owned by Llumar)

Carbon:
Suntek CXP (owned by Llumar)
3M Color Stable

Nano Hybrid Carbon-Ceramic
Rayno s5-s9

Windshield options (really need a good tinter to do this as all flaws will be noticeable):
3M Crystalline 90 or 70 (big difference in heat rejection between the 2 percentages. I suggest 70 if you go this route.)

Llumar CTX Air 80 (clear but gives similar heat.rejection as 40% tint.)

Suntek CXP 80 ( didn't have good luck with this on my 14 Civic and ended up removing. May well bedue to the tinter though.)
