    I have 2 micro inventors that have not been working properly. Last year I was told that I had to wait 6-9 months for replacement. Each time I emailed with my problem my case was "closed" without the issue being resolved. I was told in June that I had to wait longer. I June we discovered that another invertor was out. I have been contacted the company on a weekly basis since 7/3/24 each time I am told that they are doing inventory that it would be 10 days. as of today they still are waiting to have them shipped out. My warranty is up in November. I believe this is a stall tactic so they don't have to replace them. When I call the company I am not given a definite address to send a letter from my attorney. My attorney is researching where to file a suit against this company. I have been working with the BBB in ***** because on the website this shows the office is in ***** but I have this listed address on my paperwork for the warranty. Can you please help me. I am getting no where with this company.

    I had a solar system installed in 2018, including APsystems inverters and a 25 year warranty. The system was purchased from a company that went out of business, who (fortunately) contracted with a qualified and qualified local installer to install the system. I recently noticed that a cluster of six panels is not producing, indicating an inverter failure. On May 17, 2023 I sought to contact the company, finding that the phone number is useless for a system owner or installer, and that the only way to contact them is through email. I emailed them, inquiring as to how to initiate a claim. I receive a response on the following day saying that a ticket has been opened and that further communication would most likely be conducted through the installer. And also referred to the same phone number as a resource to reach out to in the event they need questions about your issue. I contacted the installer to explain that they should be receiving contact from APsystems. Since then, I nor the installer have heard from or been able to communicate with APsystems. Meanwhile, I lose production daily, having no idea on how to use my warranty and who to talk to about it. The other complaints would indicate that it will most likely not be rectified soon. A large part of my purchase decision was based on the promise of a 25-year warranty. It's bad enough that I will need to pay for the labor to replace their faulty product, but now I need to lose money daily while I wait for them to get around to doing anything about it. I need to be contacted, replacement parts need to be sent to the installer, and it should be done quickly. Uncertain that they received their money promptly when the materials were purchased from them, I would expect them to promptly honor their promise to back their product.

    Sold installer equipment and will not respond to new case emails. We did everything they told us to do to fix customer connection issues. Then they replaced the *** 3 Times. At this point the customers system isnt reporting after a year and they wont reimburse the equipment so we can replace with something else that works. Customer cannot receive any state rebates ************* promised because reporting doesnt work as manufacturer promises.
