All Apple stores offer device repair. (Or, to be more specific, they don't actually repair an iPhone, they just give you a replacement and charge a fee that depends on what the problem is.)
This does seem like an unreasonable situation to me. If the o/s detects tampering with the fingerprint scanner, the sensible thing to do would be to fall back to making the user enter the PIN, just as you have to do when you first switch the phone on following a reboot, for example.
