    Resolved
    We purchased a hybrid hot water heater from Sunlight Solar in June 2020. The hot water heater has a leak, it is leaking water into my garage. We can not find a company that will work on this type of hot water heater and have even tried calling the manufacturer to get recommendations. After futile attempts to find a company that can work on this, we called back Sunlight Solar and they told us that they could work on the heater that they installed. We agreed to pay $250 to them and told them the issue that another company had told us what the problem was. We even had the part that another company ordered for us. They cam out to the house and stated that they could not work on it even though they has told us that they could on the phone and that is why we had agreed to the cost. They then told us that they were still charging us $250 for the visit and that they would put a lien on our house if we didn't pay it. So they not only sold us a hot water heater that no company work on, they are charging us $250 just to come out and tell us that they cant work on it. They said they can work on the outside but not the inside and we had told them ahead of time what the issue was. At the minimum I dont want to pay the $250 but it is only good customer service to fix the problem or replace the product.

    I called Sunlight solar to resolve a simple issue with half of my panels not reporting. They weren't the initial installers, so I was told there would be a $170 service fee which I accept and paid, they temporarily resolved the problem, but then the same problem occurred again 10 panels not reporting. I called they came out again, costing another $170 plus I asked them to resolve the problem that day. I paid an additional $100 dollars so they could do a extended check,the service men went and checked the panels again, came back down and told me their was a wiring issue, he then showed me a video with him pushing the wires, he indicated that they had a short, he said whoever serviced it before caused the problem. Sunlight solar had came previously to these guys to service the panels, which leads me to believe they didn't do a good job. They shut off my power to the panels and never called or came back. I ended up paying $440 for nothing. They could've fix the problem, but claimed they didn't have the parts, why?Just overall bad service I wouldn't recommend customers use this company.
