You got some bad tint. You should see if you can swap it out with a brand that allows radio.

Any recommendation on the brand of the tint I should use to prevent the problems.

Tint

I installed a ceramic-based tint that is from 3-m. It does not interfere with electronic transmissions or reception. Pro tint on Santa Monica Blvd in West LA handles it and does a great job of installation. It ran about $420 installed on my cls 55.
