Very unusual.
Did you remove the door internal trim panels to do the tinting?
Perhaps something was not reconnected?

This doesn't really make sense, tinting the windows should NOT do that lol.

As rick said, did you remove any door panels or anything electrical or mess with anything like that?

Perhaps some of the water from the tinting process (or whatever liquid it is) seeped into the door panels and messed up some of the electronics. If that's the case, it's gonna be an expensive fix. Hope you can get the tint shop to accept liability if that ends up being your issue.

I'm betting it's a low voltage issue since they likely had the doors open for a while. Many modern cars are very sensitive to voltage - my wife's Jag accessories start going haywire at anything below 12. 3volts. The battery tests fine but needs to be replaced.
