got my front windshield tinted today. after i left the place, i noticed when the lights would flicker for about 15 secs or more when the engine starts. has anyone had this issue before? i plan on taking it to the dealership tomorrow to have them look at it.

Do you have your headlight switch to "auto" because if they tinted over the ambient light sensor witch is located up by the rear view mirror the car might be confused. Try if it is set to auto turn the lights off
