Solutions: get the a/c tested to find out whether or not it's working properly. If it is working properly, then keep your car parked in a garage. Even at 112, if it's in a garage (including a public parking garage), the a/c will be nice and cool because it got a head start. Both my former car, a 97 Civic and my current car, an 04 Accord, behave well under those conditions. Parked outside in the ungodly heat, even for 10 minutes, it can take quite a while to cool down from an interior of 130-150? degrees down to the desired 80 or less. And, you have to be moving along, not idling, to keep the car cool.
Don't tint your windshield; you won't be able to see out at night. Granted, in the daytime you just about need welder's goggles, but.... at night you're on equal footing with anywhere else in the world. If you want to tint the other windows, go ahead. However, none of my 04 windows are tinted, and I don't notice any "added" heating. Despite the fact that both my previous two Civics were tinted, they still heated up to ridiculous temperatures while sitting in the summer sun. That could be because they were Civics, not Accords... maybe their a/c systems weren't as good, I don't know.
