It shouldn't. Did the gps come with the car? Or is it your own gps?

It will NOT mess up your GPS. Who told you that?

Whoever told you that, make sure you never listen to them again. GPS signals come from SPACE, if tints could stop it im sure it would never make it past our ozone.

yeah... i used to work at an installation shop... it cant mess up a GPS signal, what it can mess up is a signal from an aftermarket alarm system if the antenna is installed in a place that is right on the window tint.
