David Shapera Sun City West, AZ

Just heard from SunPower that they will not be able to send out a tech until Sept 9, 2021, as one of my two inverters is not working. Thus, my panels are generating about half the power designed for. It is ARIZONA and 110 degrees! I have had the system for eight years without any heartache. Something is wrong when a company can't service it's leased products in a timely fashion. Six weeks down time is unrealistic. If there service department is that overworked, then for crying out loud hire more people. Now I am glad I decided not to get involved in their battery storage as one can only imagine how long it would take to service that. I am not a happy customer.

Sunpower has been outstanding for me so far I have a cabin way up in the woods and if it wasn’t for sun power I wouldn’t have electric or heat to stay warm. It’s by far the best investment I’ve made in along time..

I averaged my rating! 5 for product, 0 for support. I like the way the system is set up: multiple inverters so you don't have a single point failure, great warranty, authorized installers are very competent, and one company/manufacturer to deal with (more on this later.) For the first 9 months the system didn't work, but I paid for the system from day 1. I called SunPower - they say installer problem. The installation company checks the system - calls SunPower who reprograms the system and says wait a week to see the improvement. This scenario reoccurred again and again for 8 months without improvement. I went to the installation office and made them call SunPower to work out a solution. Within a month SunPower did another reprogramming which finally worked (Note: Caution below). I asked SunPower to reimburse me for the PG&E electric service I had to purchase during the 9 months during which I was also paying SunPower for solar power. I got bounced from one customer service agent to another to another, etc. After 6 months they offered me one-fifth of the expenses I had incurred. The contract has a Arbitration Clause. I have filed to arbitrate and they refuse to arbitrate or even acknowledge that the claim has been filed. In short there is no customer service and no arbitration. I'm stuck! Caution: They can program your system in or out of existence - SunPower has total control throughout your systems life. This reminds me so much of the Great Benefits Company in John Grisham's novel The Rainmaker.

Everything was good up until installation day. The team that installed my solar panels were unprofessional and messy. They cracked my ceiling, ruined my landscaping and left garbage behind. I was very happy up until this point. They did send someone out to fix the ceiling but communication was very sparse. I constantly had to reach out to people to get answers.

Very good. Timely and professional installation. Good warranty (not clear what it actually covers). Good workers, precise and neat. I would do it again except for 1 small thing. It appears the sales and support people are one and the same. We did pay upfront and not lease, but that should not be any excuse for their curt attitude, bordering on rudeness, when questions arise. First off, they tend to ignore you (take the money and run?), then when they eventually answer they are seriously reluctant to give help until they are absolutely sure they wish to help. They tend to be scornful of any suggestion their system is not 100% operational. Their server is frequently down, and they never tell you. Frankly, their customer service is abysmal. It may be arrogance, as they are consistently number one in review ( some seem generated by employees, a too common practice) So buyer beware, if you wish good followup and good customer service, go elsewhere for your solar needs.

There were many hiccups in the installation process. The sales person told us that SunPower would put in a new 220 electric box, but when the contractor arrived we were told that it was not on the work order. We finally got the 220 electric box, but it took several phone calls. We were told that it would be a 2 day project and it became a 4-5 day project. The inspection had to be 2 different times as the city had to do 2 inspections and the solar installation group did not know that 2 inspections were needed.

Very well built panels, terrible monitoring site. We have had these panels for two years. It is a 10kW that is delivering an average of 12mW/yr. We track our performance with a SolarLog which is needed to ensure that our SRECs are correct. The SunPower monitoring site worked poorly at first and now mostly not at all. Example, today we are currently running at 9.8kW. I know this from the SolarLog site. The SunPower realtime shows 0.2kW for production at the same time. We were told that we could track power productions vs power used, total fabrication until they hire someone to repair the site. We invested a lot to make this 1978 hummer of a house into a hybrid and a good monitoring system would go a long way to keeping it efficient. Too bad we didn't get that with the SumPower panels. Our installer, BluSel, is fantastic. They have tried everything possible to be sure the install didn't have any issues. This rests solely on SunPower and their neglect of this aspect of their business. I have 45 years of experience as a vender to the solar panel industry, these are good panels. Too bad after install support is non-existent from the factory

I have had my solar panels for 6 years and my solar panels stopped working. I rent my panels from SunPower who provides all the maintenance and operation on them. SunPower sent out a third party contractor who diagnosed the problem as a defective power inverter. The contractor said that it should take should take about two weeks to get the parts and a day to replace the inverter. It has been three months and my power inverter still has not been repaired. I have called both SunPower and the third party contractor numerous times to get a status update and each one blames the other for the delay. UPDATE: Parts were finally received by the contractor to make the repairs (after more than two months since the contractor informed SunPower of the problem). However, I strongly believe that if I had not made repeated calls to SunPower concerning my problem, nothing would have been done.

Had my SP system for 7 years as a100% prepaid lease. At first they were excellent with customer service and would call or email if system wasn’t performing or reporting in so they could monitor. Customer service and their performance guarantee has since severely degraded. Can’t get call back even when promised by representatives. I’ve called so many times I can’t count them all. I’m now approaching 4 months with a defective system and no means of monitoring or knowing if system is even producing power. Instead I’m being told they can’t get the parts needed to make repairs and they can’t even estimate when they might get the parts! Makes me very suspicious and concerned that they are having financial problems and are possibly about to fold. Could this be the reason suppliers have stopped shipping parts? Suggest any potential customers carefully evaluate the financial stability of SP or any solar company that they may be considering.

Sun powering my opinion has the most innovative product. But having the most innovative product doesn’t mean it is the best pro duct overall. You also have to look at Reliability , Customer service and if they monitor your system. I have had this system for 3 years and have not gone 12 months without a failure. My system is down again! After two years the inverters went out and had to be replaced. Six months later, where I should be producing 60 kilowatts I’m getting 6. I had to call them, so if they had the ability to monitor my system why couldn’t they call me. Systems been down a week and five days and still no call. Last time I had to call the local repairman to set up an appointment time, I guess they learned there lesson this time they will not give me there no. I will say when this system works it works well. When a service person come out to work on the system they do a great job. They should be able to show up in a timely fashion. I would LOVE to recommend Sun Power to my friends, but I can’t, I have been down three times in three years the last time was down for over three months. Let’s see how long it will take this time.

Jack Cupertino, CA

Our SunPower system was installed by ProVoltz who at the time was a full service company for SunPower systems. In June the SunPower monitoring system failed to notify me or the company when it stopped generating power. Apparently the monitoring system has been designed with no ability to notify anyone about problems. I happened to notice a light that flashed amber periodically on the Inverter a couple of days after the failure. I followed up by checking to find we were not getting any power generation. I immediately called ProVoltz but after a couple of days I never received a call back from their office. I still had the cell number for the owner of ProVoltz and called him directly. Then I found out that he now only does sales and I must go to Sunpower directly for help. In the meantime I had found the inverter was displaying the message “Error! Int. Error E031”. With a few quick internet searches I learned this is a common failure mode with our model of inverter and it requires that the inverter must be replaced. My nightmare started as I began my journey with SunPower support. In my first call to the 800 help line the person answering did everything possible to try to send me back to ProVoltz. After 20 minutes with me insisting that the owner of ProVoltz told me my support must come from SunPower they finally opened a case and said someone would call to set up an appointment. In a couple of days a scheduler called and said the first available appointment would be a month later. When that appointment took place the technician spent 45 minutes to determine that the inverter needed to be replaced. One of the reasons everything takes so long is that the customer facing individuals don't seem to know much and have no authority to do anything. They are constantly calling someone else at every step to find out what to do next. I was then told that the replacement inverter had to be ordered and it would take three to four weeks for it to arrive. I waited a month and heard nothing. I have now called the help desk again and, only after asking to talk to the person's manager was I promised a call back from scheduling in a couple of days. I have lost two and one-half months of power generation in the most productive time of the year and I am still waiting. Clearly SunPower has no regard for their existing customers. This is the kind of service I expect on a $200 computer, not a $24,000 solar system.

I am writing this because we are very dissatisfied with the service we have received from SunPower Solar customer service.      We really do like our solar panels, which were installed in 2015, but for whatever reason, SunPowers customer service has become "HORRENDOUS". Anyone  thinking of installing solar, should think long and hard before using this company.  I should make it clear, that their product is good, but their service is terrible, and I am not referring to the men working in the field, just all the office employees you have to deal with.       Between November 2018 and April 2019, our system has gone off line twice.  On November 28, 2018 we received an email stating that we would be receiving a pre-paid MasterCard for $330.00 for compensation, then shortly after that we would receive another  for $300.00 for our inconvenience.   This email was received after the first time our system went down. Absolutely  "0" restitution was offered after the 2nd time it went down. Originally we were OK with that, but now we "Are Not"      Because we never received the 2nd card, and that is where all our problems started.  Almost 6 months and 5 phone calls later-----Still Nothing.        All they do is switch you from one person to another, and you have to explain the whole problem over and over again. They are forever putting you on hold (one time I actually waited 55mins before they picked up again).  I have asked to speak with a manager many times and that is impossible. Every time I called, I was told  "they are all in a meeting" go figure!!     The highest I ever got was a case manager (I won't mention his name on line) but he lied to me, more then once. They are just playing games, and hoping I will give up!

My experience with sunpower capital plc is very negative. We sincerely regret having solar. I've had the solar system for two years and our roof started leaking about 3 months ago. The customer representatives are inexperienced, rude, and very unprofessional. They claimed the roof leakage is not related to the solar panels, but they sent an inspector who reported that panels should not have been placed on the weak roof. Please verify before you install solar, so you don't have headaches like us. We want to discontinue this solar so badly, but they claimed it's impossible due to the contract. May God have Mercy.

Asked for someone to call me to give me time frame for repair , no call yet. It’s been close to two monthes and no timeframe .

We were extremely disappointed to find that after spending $50K on solar, SunPower initially did NOT deliver the all black panels that you show in all your ads. Instead, you delivered newer, slightly more efficient panels, with a white grid, that do not have the black, clean look of what you show in almost 100% of your marketing and advertising. The local dealer was helpful in swapping them out but the entire situation never should have happened. SunPower (corp - not your local dealers) is not being honest in it's advertising when you show one thing and deliver another panel that looks not as clean. If the newer panels are your new standard, then THAT is what you need to show in all your advertising. Additionally, we'd asked for a system that would get us to net $0 but we're still paying PG&E $100/mo and an annual payment of $1200 on top of that. To get the system properly sized, we'd need to spend another $3K to buy 2 more panels (and no, not just to compensate for the change in 6 panels which are slightly less efficient). Frustrating.

My panels were installed in November of 2015. I was told that they were top-of-the-line. After all was installed, it was inspected and it turned out that all the electrical panels/inverter in the basement had to be moved because they were originally installed under a drain pipe. I have since had periodic problems with the inverter, losing several weeks of power production over the years. I have been promised that it would be fixed, but it hasn't. I have been promised compensation for the lost days of production, but I haven't received anything. Third, my production has fallen off considerably. I was told that production decreases by about 1% per year up to a max of 10%, but my production has fallen off way more than than projected. The people I have dealt with have been very nice, but their failure to follow through it completely frustrating. I would not recommend this company

When I first started with Sun Power some of my panels were not hooked up. After three month they got them hooked up to deliver power to me. A circuit breaker pops everytime my unit reaches 8KW. I have to reset it so I called them. They told me someone would call me in 5 to 10 days. Still no one called me. I called them back and they told me they would get right on it. Three days has passed and still no one called. I spent an hour on the phone trying to reach them. They have to contract some other solar company to repair my system. Do anyone know how to get from under there contract for the type of service they are providing?

Junk, absolutely and simply. Avoid this company at all costs. There microinverters fail at an unbelievable rate and I believe they are in the 3rd generation of supplying this horrible equipment. After you pay continually for repairs it ends up costing you to have solar, not to mention the dramatic outlay. To sum it up, SunPower is a company not ready for prime time. Have read reports the microinverters come from China and judging from my failure rate I would not be surprised!

I am a leasee of a Sun Power lease and have been happy with them over the past one year of lease. I feel my product is excellent and an excellent warranty.. I have had only superior customer service and would highly recommend to anyone who wants a solar lease.

I have had Sunpower solar panels for 5 years. They guarantee production for my panels. If production is less than the guarantee, no questions asked they provide a refund check for the difference. I have had great customer service for any issues both from the front office and the repair person.

Customer service and accounting is shopped out to people in the Phillipines...and they do not have the same business mentality as American employees...too "robot like"...extremely difficult for them to get accounting issues resolved...it took almost a year to remove an erroneous finance charge from our account....$2.82 that was not a valid charge stayed on our account for 10 months...and the way their system is setup everytime we ordered materials the shipment would always get put on credit hold...the fact that these outsourced accounting people were like robots and couldn't grasp the concept of making sure customers receive their orders in a timely manner...completely unprofessional...leave messages and noboby calls back...send emails that get ignored...just horrible customer service

I love the SUNPOWER X-22-360 solar panel. The panels are probably the best in the business, I`m very happy with them. The installation company that's where a problem may occur, like with me. Make sure you double and triple check and choose the right installation company.

Have had our panels over a year and they look great and function extremely well. The company worked with us through the whole process answering all our questions as we went along. The installers were very professional and knew exactly what to do. In a single word, awesome.

Had Sunpower installed in 2016. Up to this date, March 2017, it has perforrmed without a problem. I am looking forward to summertime, when we use air conditioning 24/7 every day for 4 months. So far no problems and also no electric bills.
