@lawsoncrusade It’s a Tesla system installed by Tesla four years ago when they did not manufacture their own panels.

Last Thursday the Tesla solar panels on my home roof caught on fire. Almost a week has gone by and, despite repeated attempts , I have yet to be able to connect with anyone at Tesla regarding the cause of the fire, repairs and the condition of the remaining panels. Unbelievable

@suniil It is a Tesla system installed by Tesla four years ago. Why do you think otherwise?

@Mudkatt I don’t have a Powerwall. This is a Tesla system installed by Tesla. They did not manufacture their own panels four years ago

@deadlyrhetorick @GRomePow They use their own installers for solar panels but not for the power wall or solar roof

A follow up to the Tesla solar panel fire. Fire dept says cause unknown. Tesla claims squirrel damage and/or nest. Perhaps this is why all installers other than Tesla install critter guards. Meanwhile I have a melted wire connector that looks very suspicious

[Dan Probst @DanProbstJLL]

@KKchirping Thanks. I agree. It seems like Tesla would want to do more to understand the cause to prevent future incidents

@hostagecs @FermisSocks I am putting in a lot of work just trying to figure out what to do next and how to be sure that I don’t have future fires. It would be nice if Tesla helped

[Dan Probst @DanProbstJLL]

@hostagecs @FermisSocks I have been on line with their service center every day. As I said in my original message, despite repeated and lengthy sessions with a call center representative I have not been able to talk to any manager or expert about causes or next steps.

[Dan Probst @DanProbstJLL]

@FermisSocks They shut down the phone line. You can only do an online chat with an agent who tells me that they will follow up with pricing for replacement. Not willing to follow up on the cause

@VisionQuest88 @FermisSocks It was a sunny day
