I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ***, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint. For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below
[To assist us in bringing this matter to a close, we would like to know your view on the matter.]I used their installers and their equipment and I assumed it would be installed correctly and it would function correctlyI signed the contract to buy and install the product and was never made aware of their warranty exclusion until after there was a problemSomething went wrong and a lot of my personal property was damaged and it did in such a way that it could have resulted in my home erupting in fire. I engaged Generac and as a result my property was damagedThe exact cause is Generac’s problemAll I know is their business caused me damagesTheir warranty states that not all jurisdictions allow the exclusions they state in their warrantyI live in CaliforniaNot Wisconsin.

I will accept the year extension as that was told to me via phone conversations.I am dissapointed in *** *** response as she is taking into account only email, and not the entire conversation(s) I have had with Generac.I am excepting generacs year extended warranty but would like you to know the following:My generator was down and off line for weeks starting on Memorial Day This was entirely due to generac The authorized support person/company that generac chose to contact me for the initial purchase and install had so many problems with generac that they were very much frusterated themselves The generac dealer and myself were told that a needed replacement engine had indeed shipped to my location for the repair of my generator Generac even said it was verified that it shipped back in MAY It really did not ship untill weeks later For weeks, generac had been telling us statements all along Then, before the new engine was started for a test run, The dealer had to replace the stator and rotor as they were bad as well Generac did not send out the parts right away After MANY phone calls and emails from both me and the generac dealer/support person, it was worked out that generac would extend my year warranty to year extended warranty due to all my troubles The extended warranty never came, and every time the dealer and myself would call or leave email to generac, we were both ignored with no responses.I wish *** *** would contact my authorized installer/support dealer herself to hear from them personally all the details of the troubles I have had before I contact the VP of customer service/support Lets get everything out on the table so this can never happen again !

Hello,Generac is happy to stand behind our products using the warranty that is providedThis warranty outlines that the consumer is responsible for covering transportation if they live in an area where there are no authorized independent service centersBoth the warranty statement and a list of dealerships outlined by country/zip code are available for all consumers on our website prior to purchase.If the consumer is looking to have this replaced locally by a non-authorized person, they are welcome to do so, however there would be no warranty assistanceThis would mean the consumer would need to order the parts from www.ordertree.com.Generac is more than happy to cover the parts and labor under warranty for any failure deemed a manufacturing defect, however that would need to be determined by an independent authorized dealership, who would then need to do the repairThe costs associated to fly a technician over to where the consumer is located, are also the responsibility of the consumer, as outlined in the warranty statement.Regards,Generac Power Systems

Hello,Generac resolution team has been in contact with the dealership that is doing the repairAs of the 27th, they have replaced the relay that Generac had sent themThe dealership advised that they had an additional follow up question regarding the repair they wanted to discuss with our factory

timeGenerac is not refusing to replace a part under warranty, however, we do require an authorized service dealer make the diagnostic and repair if there is a manufacturing defectThank you,Generac Power Systems

I do not accept their statementThe unit was ordered direct from GeneracAt the time they did not make an aluminum 20KW unit.It was shipped directly to my home address in Florida where it is installed so they knew it was a humidity and salt air areaIf the unit wasn't made for this environment that should have been statedThe fact they now make an aluminum unit to solve this problem indicates they are aware that the steel units fail prematurelyI have a year warranty that does not cover rustWithout replacing the cabinet interior the unit will literally fall apart soon. The attached pictures show no rust on the exterior but certain parts internally have failed due to rust indicating certain metal parts were defective as everything did not rust inside, only parts. this is one of two emails due to the size of the attachments *** ***###-###-####

Thank you for passing the message onto me from Generac. I did immediately call the number listed and *** answered (the person I started with as my case manager weeks ago). After some discussion she transferred me to ***, my new case manager,. *** asked if I had any service records to provide. I told her to please refer to my pages of documentation. She said she still has the documentation. She also said the person servicing my generator sent in all of his service records
Bottom line, she said she was sending *** from *** *** to exam/recommend status of the generator
My feeling is, the run around and delays continue
Again, your involvement is greatly appreciated. At least now I'm getting some considerable response. I will keep you updated

Yes, they did 'hang another part' on the Generator -at their cost, but only time will tell if it corrects the issueWe have had other 'parts' hung before that they thought would fix the problem only to have it happen again in a monthUnless we go over months or more without any codes being thrownI will not feel comfortable yet with the unit

For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below. This is unacceptable and Generac is taking no responsibility for a fire caused by their required "cold weather kit" which started on fire and destroyed the generator, we are very fortunate that it didn't destroy our homeOur offer was well within the "fair" boundaries and should have been immediatly accepted by the GeneracOur offer didn't require any cash outlay or shipping costs, the only thing they would have been out was the "profit" on a new generator, what an unreasonable company.Revdex.com thanks for your attempt at help with a company which is obviously not consumer targeted or friendly towards a home owner. I want to Thank the Revdex.com for a fine effort in dealing with a really poor company
