When I first came into contact with this company I thought they were the worst, but there were a few things and few people who changed my mind. I lived in my new home for three months without solar and reached out to CS and did not get the results I felt was best for a customer who have spent thousands of dollars on a system, but all and I must say all was rectified and I must say the company is all that and more and the stand firm on their principle. Thank you LaNiece for the follow-up, you are great a follow-upper. Lewis Sunrun need's more techs like you working for them. If every tech put in half the work that you do Sunrun would be a hella company. Darrell and Jarynet you two are the best. Thanks for work for me and with me to get my system up and running. It takes a village, and the four of you were my village. I really do appreciate all of the effort and work you guys put into gettin my system work and I was compensated for my lost. read more

they wont stop trying to scam my grandma. she's told them no multiple times, they come back and bang on the door and almost broke my screen door. one person literally pushed my front door open because we weren't answering. f**k this company. leave us alone. read more

Yikes! I'm just now seeing these reviews. I wish I'd looked here (in addition to Google and other sites) prior to getting my solar system from Sunrun. It looks like I'm not the only one whose electric plus solar bill isn't nearly as cost effective as the sales person, Derick Spicer, led me to believe. I'm paying more now (Edison + Sunrun) than I did when I was just with Edison. My account has already been escalated to their Costumer Solutions team, but aside from Vicky telling me they're checking if the system is working correctly (and that will take three days), I continue to receive Edison bills that are nowhere near as low as I was sold. This is my third house with solar and, by far, the worst experience. My previous two solar systems would take my electric bill to standard connection fees...now, I'm pulling more from the grid than I did BEFORE the system was installed. Nothing in my lifestyle has changed. If you want to pay a lot more, go with Sunrun. if you want to save money, have a customer service dept who is consistent with their knowledge of your system, and doesn't blame Edison or you for your system not working, stay away from these guys. read more

Sunrun installed a faulty inverter. Now they are charging me 850 dollars to replace it. Charged me 600 for a tech to come out for 20 min. I own the system outright. I've lost around 2k in true up charges, no power production, and service fees. Highly disappointed, would not use this company unless you have to. read more

DO NOT USE THEM! They do shady things to get the contracts filled and take your money and leave without taking responsibility. They kept installing while NOT HAVING THE PROPER PERMITS, and then proceeded to wire the electrical wrong that caused a fired and on top of that DAMAGED THE ROOF. The city already sited the damages done by them, it's all on record. However the lawyer fees to chase after them are too much for my mother to cover. So I'm just here to warn everyone, NEVER EVER USE THEM. My mother told them to stop multiple times because they didn't get the approved permits and they ignored her claiming its in the contract. Now my mother is stuck with a damaged roof that'll cost more and they ran away with her money. Horrible business and people. read more

Again, if I could give them a zero, I would. DO NOT ENGAGE THIS COMPANY. My reviews led to being contacted by their supposed escalation department. Emily was kind until we had to reschedule appointments due to medical related emergencies, including my son breaking his arm. Once the reschedulings took place, I was sent a terse communication telling me I would be paying for damages and panel removal. During the entire time without functioning panels, I was told panels were on BACK ORDER while their sales people continued showing up in our neighborhood and even at our door selling systems. They continued installing systems in our area. When I pointed that out, they finally showed up unannounced with new panels on 3/11/2025. THREE YEARS LATER. I let them install them even though we were not prepared. As pointed out for the past three years, the shingles around and under the units need replacing. SunRun is now telling me I will have to pay for removal so my roofing contractor can fix everything despite THREE YEARS of underperformance and damage from their hack installers. They have not paid for nor fixed the damage from their incompetent installation. All of these things are in breach of their contract which warrantees equipment, guarantees output, etc. If these people show up at your door, DO NOT BELIEVE THEM. Send them packing. read more

Sunrun is a scam. Stay away from Them. I got sunrun in September 2024 and I pay double than when I had no solar panels. Customer service blames me that I'm using more energy than before and that's BS. Now I under contract for 20 years. That's a long time with this useless crap. Here's a picture from Google. read more

Sunrun - Complaints - Solar Installation Near Me - Fontana, California

STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY. I am writing this to warn others about my experience with Sunrun. My billing has been a constant mess; despite being on autopay, I've had to contact customer service numerous times just to get my account balanced correctly. It is an administrative nightmare. More importantly, I was completely misled by my sales representative, Tarek Nabil. During the signing of my 25-year lease, I specifically asked if the contract could be canceled at any time. He assured me the answer was "Yes" and convinced me that the rate increases would be negligible compared to local power companies. Now that my home is on the market, I have discovered this was a lie. Sunrun informed me that I cannot cancel; I am forced to either buy out the panels or attempt to transfer the lease to the new owners. This has significantly complicated my home sale and decreased my property value. If you value transparency and honest business practices, stay away from this company. read more

I never wanted sunrun. When I first got solar I was with Vivint Solar then Vivint got bought out by Sunrun so I didn't really have a say. My house got flooded so I had laps in payments while I took care of the main property damage. After I paid them off, They kept giving me the runaround telling me that it would be turned on immediately, then they would try to remote start it and if that didn't work they'd call me up to make an appointment, etc. I was just now able to make an appointment after a month with no power after I payed them off. That appointment isn't until the end of this month so around a month in a half to two months total. I'm on the verge of hiring a private company to remove the solar panels (I don't trust sunrun moving the solar panels because they are incompetent and might mess up my roof). and just going back to Edison. This company is a joke. read more

Again sunrun has not cleared up anything to do with our purchase of their solar system .it was very misleading what they did to my self and wife. I guess they feel they can con seniors out of almost anything. We were told we would save but that was a lie.our bill which we have are 2 different bills.and basically our electricity in Banning has its own base not sce.people be very careful of sunrun. read more

My experience with Sunrun and Remi Roofing has been unacceptable and costly. After Remi Roofing removed and reinstalled my solar panels during a roof replacement, my solar system ceased producing power. This failure was not minor, intermittent, or difficult to detect -- the system simply did not work. Despite this, both companies failed to conduct a proper investigation or take corrective action. Remi Roofing reinstalled the panels without ensuring the system was restored to working condition. Sunrun, as the solar provider, failed in its basic responsibility to inspect, test, and verify system performance after reinstallation. At no point did either company demonstrate urgency, ownership, or technical competence in addressing the loss of solar production. The most troubling aspect is the complete lack of accountability. Each company deflected responsibility rather than resolving a clear system failure that did not exist prior to the roof work. As a result, I was left paying for a solar system that was not producing energy, while both companies avoided corrective action. This is not a customer service issue -- it is a failure of professional duty. Homeowners should not have to fight to get contractors to verify that their work did not damage or disable expensive equipment. I strongly advise potential customers to avoid both companies unless they are willing to document every step, demand independent verification of system performance, and prepare for resistance when problems arise. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend either Sunrun or Remi Roofing under any circumstances. read more

Avoid these companies at all cost - Sunrun, Suncore, and Remi. Entire process was horrible from start to end. Had to go through Sunrun and Remi to get our solar panels reinstalled after we got our roof redone and since we have a lease agreement with Sunrun and entire process was just horrible from start to end. Sunrun contracts their solar reinstallation jobs to a partner company called Remi, who then contracts it out to low quality contractors who do a horrible job of reinstalling your solar panels. The contractors called Sun Core - moved one of the panels from its original location to another spot without telling us. During the reinstallation of the solar panels, they also failed to secure the solar panels promptly and some panels could just be lifted up easily. They also installed a J-box haphazardly and the cables underneath the panels were not secured. A lot of them were touching the roof. All of these issues caused resulted in failing the city roof inspection. They had to come back 2 more times after the initial reinstallation until it was all resolved. Honestly after this whole experience I never wish to do business with any of these companies ever again. Customer service is crap too. All they do is apologize but they won't repay you for all your wasted time and low quality of work. read more

April 26, 2025 Sunrun has implemented this program called Virtual Power Plant (CalReady). They, sunrun, automatically signed you up for the program. They gave a link to 'opt out' but that like did not 'opt you out' 2025. I had to call to 'opt out'. This program allows sunrun to use your battery to power the grid between 4Pm and 9 PM. The program which is to start May 1st . Today, April 26 2025, I noticed my battery was powering the grid. This was NOT authorized. And even before the CalReady plan was to take effect. If someone take something from someone without[permission it is stealing and stealing is a crime. But looking back at sunrun history they will take actions wrongful or correct action which ever works in their bust interest. and if caught just get sued. Clearly their business practice. read more

On 10/7/2025, I had SunRun install 21 solar panels on my house with 2 Tesla 3 batteries. My roof was recently repaired and all broken tiles replaced before SunRun workers installed the solar panels. I spoke to the foreman and told him all the aforementioned. He said that they were professionals and were going to male sure they did an excellent job. The installation went well and they finished the job the same day. On 10/13/2025, I had my roofer (linsenced contractor) inspect the roof and discovered broken tiles, trash , and debris. I was in total shock. Always inspect your roof before and after installation of solar panels. Then you can make these people fix what they break. Good luck with calling SunRun read more

Please stay away from this company. Kelly is the worst case manager that handles issues. She never answer her phone calls, she never return any emails. It's been 3 months, trying to re-install my solar panel. Sent 2 technicians to 2 times to take photos and then billed me $500 for that. Today they schedule an appointment for me so they can come do installation, emailed me saying that they will come between 12-5 pm. Stayed waiting for 5 hours for them and no one showed up. I called to see what's going on and figured out that Kelly has canceled the appointment and no one even told m they are cancelling. Please, Please stay away !!!!! 0 customer service read more

These guys are worse than jehovah's witnesses with the way they show up at homes door-to-door. We see you at big box stores, we see your crap in our mailboxes, and you hound us at the door regularly. Enough. If you are interested in solar, make sure you get a home battery. Neovolta is a great option. Excellent product and service. Better than these guys. read more

Extremely mad and disappointed with Sunrun. With the last rain storms we had I got a leak on my roof. I called Sunrun and they sent people down to do an investigation and they took pictures and they told me they could not determine if it would be covered under warranty because there was no attic space where it was leaking so they said they were going to have to send other people to actually cut a small hole in my ceiling so they could take another look. I waited for about two weeks then got a call saying they are going to have to deny the warranty claim even though they didn't finish the investigation as I was told. New issue is I have not been able to see my production on my app. I got busy and forgot to call them to see why. I called today and they said because I changed my internet provider they can't talk to my system and to re-set it they would have to send a technician to connect to the internet. They never told me they lost connection to see what was going on or that they were using my internet. There is a small antenna on one of the boxes and thought they were using cell service. They now tell me I have to pay for a technician to come to my house. I asked if they could send me the instructions I could do it as I'm a technician myself so I'm pretty handy. They said no. I asked why not you just said I own the system and won't cover that under warranty. You also won't cover my roof even though was promised a 15 year warranty for my roof and now I have to pay for the technician? This shouldn't be this hard. Seems all they want is money or they won't help. read more

They increased the prices as the pecentage went WAY up when they decided we needed to pay THEIR taxes...and passed them on to us PLUS their yearly percentage rate. tremendously. I .will never, ever, ever recommend Sunrun again. Run from Sunrun!!! read more

RUN IS THE OPTIMUM WORD. Worst solar company. The sales guys are a totally waist of time. Over and over almost 2 hours and didn't listen to a word I said. He tried to sell me a lease no matter how many times I explained I didn't want a lease which was at least 20. The price was higher than every quote I got. I'm sure they would have probably matched but don't wait my time with that!!!! Then they sold my info to every telemarketer on the planet. Then to opt out you have to call and go through a painful questionnaire then after you done they will mail you another questionnaire you need to fill out.The solar panels are not the greatest for the price point.. They generate 410 watts per panel. I Researched all the panels and found a company that are using 460 watt panel for a lot lower price. Also they don't use micro inverters on the array. read more

They keep saying sunrun is the #1 I see people feel very different I've had nothing but problems My electricity bill is higher than Edison and I have no idea why I need a new day comes out to look at my roof cause I have a complaint He tells my roof is good and there's no leaks but he's not a roofer Yeah the roof is good where the solar panels aren't at... My own opinion after having the panels on my house 10 years it has absolutely destroyed my roof cause I have no issues anywhere else where there's no solar panels My bill has not changed it's still very expensive Let me share something with you My panels are leased I don't even own them And according to them my job is to make sure they're maintained and cleaned it's my job to put pigeon Wire around the panels no one talks about These pigeons will f up your house quick That was a nice little $4000 installation cleaning Depending on what company you call rummy about $600 to 800 If you have any issues with your roof where the solar panels are they will not take me responsibility for it they will send some dude out they'll do an inspection but he's not a roofer All I can say in my opinion stay far away from any solar company read more

The Soliciting is ridiculous. I have a sign on my door that says to not knock or ring because of my newborn and dogs . Did they read the sign ...no .

The solar panels on my home have not been producing energy since September/October of 2024. This is was brought to Sunruns attention numerous times. The initial response was there are parts that are needed and they are on backorder. After multiple attempts via email and phone calls to get an update or even a response regarding an ETA on when my system is expected to by functioning again has fallen on deaf ears. We are approaching 6 months with no production and no communication, this is unacceptable. Due to the experiences with the customer service and my account "manager" I would definitely not recommend using this company. Honestly, the equipment and product could be the best in the world but if you can't get the company to come to your home to repair the issues everything else is a moot point. Would give 0 stars if it were possible. read more

For those who are looking to get solars installed, PLEASE DO NOT HIRE SUN RUN! The entire company is a mess! They did not install the underlayment and the tiles back on properly which lead to a leak. The leak caused a lot of water damages to our home in various areas to the point where the bathroom ceiling collapsed! I had to pay out of pocket for an emergency tarp (which btw is not cheap!) because we could not get in contact with Sun Run! It's been almost 3 months and we still have not had any repairs done even when an inspector finally came out and had admit fault! We can barely get anyone to pick up our phone calls or even call us back when we leave them voicemails. We write emails to them daily and still barely any help except that "they are working on it and they are escalating the matter..." Our case has been shuffled back and forth between different Sun Run employees/case managers and they either don't know what is going on or say the "case manager is out of the office and will return our phone calls," but obviously they do not call back! We have documentation on everything and have photos as proof. We even hire a lawyer write up a demand letter to fix the repairs and it was sent to their legal counsel, and yet NOTHING! I feel like I've exhausted so many avenues and nothing has been working. I want to make sure no one else has to go through the same situation as us! AVOID SUN RUN AT ALL COSTS! read more

Not even four years into solar and our roof/ceiling/beams are damaged from their incompetent installation job! They have admitted fault and our warranty clearly states their promise to fix it and pay for it all! But over a month later still sitting here with a soggy ceiling and ruined roof! They sent an incompetent or say shady contractor who though he'd get away with a patch job lol um NOPE then we were told we could get our own contractor, I went above and beyond taking time from my job and got three bids and still they blowing smoke! The stress is off the charts and the panels off is costing us money! Our damages are over $30k And more rain coming is more damages since they neglected to get the house tarped after panels removed. The first tarp job caused more damages and was done wrong! My life's mission is to make them accountable! I eat, sleep, breathe and defecate this situation!!!!! I will not stop nor go away til my house is back to the way it was!!!!! read more

Horrible company and hope you have money to burn. We have had Sunrun turned on for 6 months, constantly getting a Edison bill higher than our monthly Sunrun bill. We only pull from the grid, Sunrun says it's teslas problem, Tesla says it's Sunruns problem. Meanwhile, out case manager Seneca just blows us off and says it's not her problem. This is the biggest mistake we have ever made and desperately looking for an attorney to help us out of this hell. Customer service is a joke, they transfer us until they eventually hang up. Everything about this company is a joke, but sadly now I'm on the hook for this shit for 20 years. If you're an attorney please reach out, I'm sure we have a class action that can easily be put together. read more

Sunrun is the worst company I have ever dealt with in my life. I wish I never ever had to deal with Sunrun. They ruined my roof and blamed me for it. Roofing company came out and said "The solar install caused major leaks." Sunrun dragged the repairs out for almost 9 months when my warranty expired ... when it rained again we found out that it wasn't repaired - they basically said too bad your warranty expired. read more

Sunrun Solar installers destroyed my roof. It will be a year this October that they haven't fixed it. The panels and rails were removed and lay on my property. They have sent me 4 escalation team experts who either get fired or quit. I'm in Florida and Sunrun is no longer in Florida for new installs. I am trying to work w their insurance company to settle my claim. They are in breach of contract as far as I'm concerned. They have a horrible track record for customer service and keeping staff. read more

What a terrible company and experience. They prey on elderly customers who don't understand solar nor the terribly written contracts. While they collect state and federal tax incentives they charge heavily inflated prices for low quality and poorly designed and installed solar systems. Want any support, good luck you will have to speak with multiple employees, many of whom barely speak English. You will get different stories and excuses along the way. Solar not providing the power promised in contract? Well they are going to keep charging you money and you can wait months for them to send someone out. If they show up you will just get an excuse of well I have to get authorization to fix then I can order parts. As their name implies, RUN AWAY! read more

Do Not Contract with SunRun. They contract their "maintenance and service and it takes over a month to schedule a service call. One of the Worst Decision of my life to get Solar with SunRun. Don't do it. You are better off paying current electrical prices.

I would give them a zero star if I could. They did not install the solar properly, and we are paying Edison over $600/month on top of paying Sun Run. We are paying more now than we did without solar. They never fix the issues, but still charge us. Be aware that you will not be reimbursed for overpayment for two years if anything isn't working correctly. I have already put in a complaint to the state. Do your research prior to using them. read more

We are locked in a 25 year lease. We were promised large savings on our electrical bills, even getting money back from APS every year. This is not the case at all. Besides paying Sunrun 128.93 a month our APS bill run over 200.00+ a month in the summer, 80.00 a month in the winter, when we don't use the air conditioner or heater. We reached out to Sunrun and their fix is to add more panels for another 80.00 a month. We also ended up with some storm damage on our roof. Sunrun was 100% unresponsive in removing the panel so we could get our new roof installed. The roofer reached out to a certified Sunrun installer to do the job, Sunrun wanted to charge us 325.00 to inspect the panels and reinstat the warranty. We also found out that only half the panels had been working for over six months. When I called Sunrun they did come out and fix it but we were never reimbursed and Sunrun said it was our job to monitor the panels, even though it's in the contract and we were told at the time of the sale that they monitor the panels. I thought solar power was our way to improve the environment, but I wish Sunrun had never stopped at my door. read more

First of all, let me say I have 9 units with Sunrun. You'd think they'd treat loyal customers better, but outside of Jackie, my sales rep, the company support is a disjointed, inept, and not very well trained. Everytime I have an experience with their support team, I question why I've done so much business with them. Their systems break often (I've had 3 inverters replaced already), and getting people to go out to check it out is a nightmare. The average downtime whenever something breaks is 2 months, which is extremely frustrating given we own most of our units, so it's just money coming out of our pocket. I highly recommend staying away from Sunrun. You're better off with any other provider. read more

My solar was disconnected in June. Sunrun received an alert in August and never contacted us. Still waiting for them to come out and fix it. Thousands of dollars in increased electric bills met with indifference. I was told I needed to contact them because I was not billed. .

I made the mistake of allowing SunRun to sell me on the dream of going solar. On the Dream of having one bill and that was to purchase the power from Sunrun. That was the worst mistake I have made in a longtime. I honestly believed that they would design a system that was going to help me save money. They sell you Dream alright and then you really it's a horrible Dream more of a nightmare. Dealing with the horrible customer service they have and the lack of knowledge there so called experts have. So from beginning to now nearing the completion of my first year with the system they designed as experts. For 11 months I complained and said something is wrong with this system. Me not being an expert realized right away something is wrong. For 11 months SunRun treated me poorly while I still paying them month after month after month. The worst 11 months of doing business with a company I thought would care about the customers that will help spread the word of the good book of business they run. Well that was not the Case 11 months of saying my system is not performing . 11 months it took for them to realize they installed my system wrong and I had three pinched wires this whole entire time. From what the te h told me in his work my inverter was not working properly because of the carelessness of the techs who installed my system. They supposedly check and maintain an eye on the system when they first start it up and how this was missed for 11 months is insane. They made me believe I was wrong dealt with three case managers because the customer service was so bad. They would say we will get back to you with more follow ups. When I would follow up the case manager Dustin would make me feel like I was an inconvenience to him. Dealing with SunRun and its team has been just a nightmare and if I can protect someone from making the same mistake I made. I will be able to live with myself and my horror story of the day I allowed SunRun into my home to sell me the Solar Dream. Nobody is perfect and yes we make mistakes but owning up to them is not the SunRun way. They will pretty much tell you hey it is what it is. I added some photos to show you how it can go from system okay to 11 months later the system was running with three pinched wires that nobody caught and when I asked they had the audacity to say well SCE also should have checked and they said everything was fine. I'm buying power from SunRun to avoid SCE and here they are trying to Blame SCE for the Install SunRun did. Please do your research go to the BBB Better Business Bureau and checked the Reviews and believe the horror stories you see on there. This company really does have that bad customer service. Read the reviews on Yelp and Google . This company is really that bad with customer service and dealing with customers. Learn from me and stay away far away. I added some photos to show you the lack of communication and be ready to see your system always showing error and them saying oh that's normal. read more

i've been a member of their "club since 2017 and I've never been happy. Their new technique for complaints about billing is to send you a notice that your your system is working fine and everything's good and that's all they say. Nothing about performance guarantee reimbursement, nothing to do with anything that could come from them as a gesture of Goodwill for their terribly under performing system.. I know they've got a whole string of attorneys just waiting to chew us little people up and exhaust us so that we do not collect a thing so that we don't get our value so that they don't do what's right.

DO NOT GET SOLAR PANELS, Especially from SUNRUN! I got Panels from Sunrun 5 years ago and it`s been a real Nightmare which only death will be a blessing. Just found out today that sometime during the biggening of the year, If you own your panels, it will cost $500 dollars to send a tech over. I just got a new roof and had them re-installed, had I know this, I would've never had them back on my roof. Buyer BEWARE.....SUNRUN is the Devil in disguise. read more
