got 35% formula one pinnacle tint done yesterday at astro eclipse, looks great but on my way back the car complained saying the sos was not working and i could not get any satellite radio.

When i started the car this morning i got satellite radio but there was a battery drain message.

Can the people who have gotten pinnacle before tell me if this is a curing issue with the ceramic tint which goes away once the tint cures ?

sounds like they used way too much water when they installed the film. check the left rear trunk area (behind the panel) for moisture.

I have the same tint and I haven't had any issues. Both the Sat and SOS are fine.

Same here, I have Formula One and experienced zero problems. It is a non-metalic ceramic film therefore should not interfere with electronic signals in the car.
