SUNRUN IS A SCAM. THEY ARE RUDE, UNPROFESSIONAL, AND MAKE UNFULF

If you guys ever plan to install solar, please stay away from SunRun. They make promises, but don't deliver at all. They are rude and unprofessional. When something goes wrong, they will not take ownership or responsibility for their mistakes. They will give you the run around when seeking for help and will pass you around like a hot potato. <br /><br />Let me explain my story. <br /><br />About 6 months ago, they installed solar panel on my house. On the installation day, SunRun arrived at my house very early in the morning and was very rude to my pregnant wife. They immediately tried to rush her out of the house quickly because they said they were on a time constraint. They didn't even allow her enough time to feed our son, change his diaper, apply his eczema medication, or even prepare a bag (medication, food, cloth, and diaper). She felt uncomfortable by how they were pressuring her, so she left the house immediately. As a result, my 2-year old son who has eczema, scratch himself the whole day at the babysitter's house. <br /><br />That same night including the next 5-7 nights, it was hell for us. He scratched himself to the point that he started bleeding, which resulted in stains on the bed sheet. We had to wake up almost every hour to apply medication on him because of his itching or else he wouldn't be able to sleep. Typically, he wakes up about 1-2 times a night because of the itching; but in this case, he was up almost every hour for almost a week straight. This is not acceptable at all!<br /><br />In addition to that, they did not do a good job installing our solar panel. SunRun installed solar panel and damaged my roof, but they won't take any ownership or responsibility at all. I have neighbors and contractors who witnessed the damage and SunRun didn't accept their statements. I had to hire my contractor to perform an emergency repair to the damage because it was raining that week. SunRun also claimed that nothing was wrong with the roof when they came back for inspection. However, prior to their inspection, I informed them that I hired my contractor to fix the damage because it was raining that week. They even stated that I did not provide any documents for my claim. What a lie! <br /><br />They gave me the run around and continued to pass me around like a hot potato. One of their managers wanted to meet me and my family in person to personally apologize and compensate us. We scheduled a date and he never showed up. My wife and I waited the whole day for him. No calls or anything. The next day I called the manager to inquire about him not showing up and he tried to deflect my questions. Then, he became irate over the phone. I've been back and forth with SunRun for about 6 months with no success at all to this day. I would never want anyone to go through what I've been through with this company. No one deserves to be treated like this and I would hate to have to hear another story like this one. I know it's not going anywhere with them, so I'm here asking the public for help.<br /><br />Please avoid this company.
