If I understand this correctly ,you have 14 year old shingles?
I have worked for contractors off and on and have done my own roofs. I can tell you from my experience that you are scarce likely to have a shingle company reimburse you or replace product.
The most common failure for shingle is poor ventilation in the attic beneath them,people pack insulation in so thick they block the air flow from the sofet up through to the roof vents. They also have inadequate vents. I bought a cottage with a two year old roof on it,a few years later I was up on it to remove a branch and I knew right away there was a problem,the now four year old shingles were cracking,starting to peel. I phoned the guy I work for and he said he would look...roof was shot! When we got under we lifted the sheeting and sure enough some do gooder who owned it before me crammed insulation into the rafters above the plate,blocking all air flow and baking the shingles in a few short years,when we went roofing we found this time and time again and people wouldn't believe us until we took them up and showed them. In a nut shell 25 year shingles don't last 25 years under the best conditions,but with good ventilation you can get 18 to 20 out of them.

Today's Featured Article - Tractor Hydraulics - The Basics - by Curtis Von Fange. Hydraulics was one of the greatest inventions for helping man compound the work he can do. It’s amazing how a little floor jack can lift tons and tons of weight with just the flick of a handle. What’s even more amazing is that all the principals of hydraulic theory can be wrapped up in such a small package. This same package applies to any hydraulic system from the largest bulldozer to the oldest and smallest tractor. This short series will take a look at the basic layout of a simple hydraul ...
