    The product, in the report: solar racking

    (5/15/15) The submitter purchased the solar panels and the solar racking over the phone. The submitter installed the solar panels and the solar racking in October 2015. The solar panels and the solar racking were installed in the rear of the home.

    (12/17/15) The submitter was on site ([REDACTED]) doing service work. The submitter noticed that the solar panels and the solar racking fell. The submitter examined the solar panels and the solar racking. The submitter states that the array with 16 solar panels was fastened to a pole and the weight of the array pulled the entire thing off of the pole. The submitter states that the gear which is part of the solar racking failed. The gear is between the array and the pole and the gear pulled apart.

    (12/17/15) The submitter contacted the firm [REDACTED] to inform them of the incident and he spoke with [REDACTED]. The submitter was advised that they would compensate for the production loss and the cost of a new racking system. The submitter was also told that someone would go to the site and examine the product. The submitter states that no one has gone to the site as of today, 2/10/16. The submitter has called the firm multiple times and has been told that someone would call him back. The submitter last called the firm on 2/9/16.

    The submitter believes the gears on these solar racking are defective and pose a safety hazard.
