FASTIf you're a homeowner in New York who was misled into a solar contract, you have options. New York law provides consumer protections that may allow you to cancel your agreement and get out from under a bad deal.
Your Rescission Rights in New York
New York follows the federal FTC Cooling-Off Rule, which gives you 3 business days to cancel any contract signed at your home. During this window, you can cancel for any reason with no penalty by sending written notice via certified mail.
After the Cooling-Off Period
Even after the 3-day window closes, New York homeowners may still have grounds for cancellation. Common reasons include: misrepresentation of savings, undisclosed escalation clauses, failure to obtain proper permits, and violations of New York consumer protection statutes.
Filing Complaints in New York
New York homeowners can file complaints with the New York Attorney General's office, the Better Business Bureau, and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Filing with multiple agencies creates a stronger paper trail and increases pressure on the solar company.
