Default Help dealing with dealer repair and warranty

Have a 2017 Land Rover I took into the dealership because the car was making funny noises at 50MPH and greater with a warning that would come on periodically that would say "reduced traction". The dealer diagnosed the transfer case as being the problem and said the repair will be $7,500. They said it would not be covered under warranty because the tires are incorrect size. The tires are 285/40R22 and they said they have to be 275/40R22, and because the tires are 285 thats what possibly damaged the transfer case. I bought this car from a different Land Rover dealership with these tires on the vehicle. This seems completely insane that they are trying to get out of warranty coverage because of the tires.

Thoughts?

That does sound insane, can you take the vehicle to the dealer you bought it from?
