Man this took forever to get posted.
The tint could be related, if it is a metallized do tint. I doubt it's actually causing the issue though. Tons of people have communication related issues with metallized tint, radio reception, Bluetooth, TPMS.
Try another dealership, or bring in documentation of tint stating brand, type, etc. Usually tint will specifically state it won't interfere with electronics. Is it really dark? If it's legal, they can't say shite.

Its not metallic. I talked to the guy who tinted the car and he also tints cars for this dealership and he's never heard of this bs either. After dealing with corporate hyandai and their lack of knowledge on how to diagnose and fix this car, I'll never buy another hyandai.

The modification has to cause the problem to void it. If you got mud tires and suddenly your radio cuts out, that would not void the warranty.
OP, that dealership is flat out lying to you. There is no way that window tint could ever mess up a TPMS. It is 100% impossible

Why not? If the tint has any metallic in it, the TMPS sensors are wireless devices and the metallic tint may interfere. I had a 2008 BMW that had supposedly ceramic tint on it but the comfort access (where the door unlocks with your key in your pocket when you touch the handle) never worked right after the tint went on. I had it removed when I traded the car in and it worked perfectly 2 years later. Not saying that this is what is going on here but it's not 100% impossible.

Well... There's your problem...
Maybe try calling HYUNDAI. They might know how to fix it?
