Contract Problems
According to complaints against Tesla Solar Roof, the company has been augmenting contract prices after clients have signed into their contracts. Per the reports, Tesla Solar Roof has been shooting up contract prices to up to 100 percent of their initial quotation just right before installation; a colossal addition considering their already steep pricing. Consumers from across several states have responded with a lawsuit that’s been filed in the Northern California Federal court on their behalf.
Deplorable Service
Broken roofing, poor installation, and non-existent after-sales services are just a few of Tesla Solar Roof’s lamentations. Despite advertising professional services, consumers have reported having their roofs damaged due to poor installation; mostly reporting unpatched holes on their roofs. Others detailed having solar devices stop working as intended, causing them thousands to repair. To make matters worse, some have had to navigate repairs by themselves as Tesla Solar Roof has failed to act on requests for repairs or even pick up their phone lines.
Constant Price Hikes
Despite claims of affordability, Tesla Solar Roof’s service rates have sky-rocketed over the past years. Tesla Solar Roof’s consumers reported having no clear explanation for exorbitant hikes aside from the change being a “business decision”. This is amid a growing niche for solar-powered panels in both residential and commercial avenues. The price hikes also contradict the company’s aim to bring their products and services to more and more households.
Dismal Customer Relations
In addition to the above complaints, consumers of Tesla Solar Roof have also lamented the company’s illusory customer service. A common theme among consumer reports is the tech company’s unresponsive service line, including project managers, that’s left consumers without assistance for weeks or months on end, even with urgent issues. Others detailed receiving excellent communication from Tesla before the contract signing, and things going downhill from there. Some have also reported having project managers unknowledgeable of Tesla tech, as well as representatives unaware of troubleshooting technical issues.
Unfortunately, contract issues, excessive price increases, and generally abysmal technical service complaints are just the beginning for Tesla Solar Roof. The tech roofing company’s customers are left wondering what options they have regarding their consumer rights.

Here’s How to Make Big Companies Listen
It can be frustrating when you rely on a service and don’t get the results you’ve paid for. Big companies make mistakes every day and not only is it their fault, but it can also cost you money, time, and leave you with big headaches.
Have you tried calling Tesla Solar Roof to address an issue, only to be told that the representative has no authority to do so? Or maybe you’ve tried talking to someone higher up in the company, only to be ignored, dismissed, or they take too long, continuing to waste your precious time. Maybe you’ve sent an email to the company which only resulted in a prefabricated response or they never follow through with what they’ve promised.
When you’re limited in your choices for service providers or you’re locked into a contract, what can you do?
Fortunately, you do have options.
Use Arbitration to Settle Your Complaint
Most companies like Tesla Solar Roof have an arbitration clause in their contracts to prevent being taken to court for traditional litigation. This is actually an advantage for the consumer. When you request an arbitration hearing, an independent third-party (the arbitrator) with knowledge of the type of situation involved will listen to the facts from both sides and make an impartial, binding decision. Tesla Solar Roof will have to do a lot of work and there is no guarantee that they will have a successful outcome.
Arbitration is Fast, Inexpensive, and Private
Arbitration with Tesla Solar Roof is conducted through the American Arbitration Association (AAA). According to the AAA Consumer Due Process Protocol, arbitration through AAA will comply with their Statement of Principles, which includes:
- The process is fundamentally fair – All parties are entitled to qualified, competent, impartial arbitrators who will conduct a fair hearing.
- You get access to all relevant information – This includes reasonable costs, confidentiality, reasonable time limits, and meeting times and/or locations that are agreeable to both parties.
- Transparency – AAA provides clear arbitration agreements and the ability for each side to hire their own representation.
- Just process – Arbitration allows the arbitrator to award the same relief as traditional litigation in a binding decision.
- Alternative to arbitration – Mediation and the ability to take the case to small claims court should be available in some cases.
Arbitration Gives you Control and Leverage
When Tesla Solar Roof is alerted that you plan to pursue arbitration, they know it will cost them money out of pocket. Not only do they run the risk of losing the case, but they will also pay for their mistake(s) and the arbitration itself. This gives you more leverage with your demands.
If Tesla Solar Roof doesn’t meet those demands and you have a real complaint, Agruss Law Firm, LLC can help by representing you in arbitration where you will get a fair, just, and transparent hearing.
Control and Leverage Triggers Faster Settlements
Large companies like Tesla Solar Roof don’t like the uncertainty and loss of control that comes with arbitration. Not only do they lose the advantage in the situation, but you’re also on equal footing with them in the eyes of arbitration.
The first step in taking on Tesla Solar Roof is to formally raise your complaint. The lawyers at Agruss Law Firm, LLC can help you to do so. We will send a letter of demands to the corporate offices of Tesla Solar Roof, letting them know that you’re ready to begin arbitration if a satisfactory resolution is not achieved. Typically, this is 30 days, but it will depend on your specific contract with Tesla Solar Roof.
Approximately 50% of cases will settle before proceeding to an arbitration hearing during this time. However, if Tesla Solar Roof doesn’t offer a reasonable settlement within the appropriate time frame, the next step would be filing a case with AAA. Agruss Law Firm, LLC will not only put together the necessary paperwork for arbitration, but we will also help you take the next steps in the arbitration process.
UDAAP and Arbitration
UDAAP is an acronym representing laws that prohibit Unfair, Deceptive, or Abusive Acts or Practices in the context of trade or business. This includes misrepresentation, deception, false advertising, or false promises. These laws emerged following the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act that was enacted in response to the 2008 financial crisis. The ultimate goal with these laws is geared towards protecting consumers involved in financial transactions, educating consumers on their rights, and allowing them access to information and resources to best inform their decisions.
UDAAP laws are regulated by two organizations, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). The FTC expanded the initial UDAAP laws in 2004 to include unfair and deceptive acts and practices. Some standards for unfairness, in particular, include if it causes or is likely to cause substantial injury to consumers, the injury is not reasonably avoidable by consumers, and the injury is not outweighed by countervailing benefits to consumers or to competition.
Every state has UDAAP laws, which can vary widely. However, the lawyers at Agruss Law Firm, LLC understand these laws and can use them to get compensation for deceptive practices, representing consumers throughout the country in cases of arbitration at no cost to them. The company will not only pay the consumer, but they will also pay my fees as well. The consumer will never pay me a cent.
If you’re dealing with an issue with Tesla Solar Roof, you might try filing a complaint with the BBB or the customer service team with Tesla Solar Roof. Unfortunately, these avenues won’t always lead to a successful resolution for you, the customer. Instead, you may want to consider an experienced arbitration lawyer to take on your case.
Arbitration is a very useful tool for resolving disputes, and Agruss Law Firm, LLC can help. With our expert guidance, we bring the big companies to the table and provide the support needed to get your bills corrected, credit reports fixed, improper fees refunded, and more.
