Michigan's Home Solicitation Sales Act (MCL 445.111) and Consumer Protection Act give homeowners strong rights when solar contracts are signed at home under pressure.
Cooling-Off Period Michigan gives buyers 3 business days to cancel any home-solicited sale. Failure to provide the required cancellation notice extends the window indefinitely until proper notice is given.
Deceptive Practices Under the Michigan Consumer Protection Act, misrepresenting savings, tax credits, or the identity of the seller can void the contract. Bait-and-switch tactics involving financing terms are specifically prohibited.
UCC-1 Liens Many Michigan homeowners discover a UCC-1 lien filed against their property after solar installation. The lender must disclose this before signing. Undisclosed liens can be grounds for a complaint or removal action.
Complaint Resources Complaints can be filed with the Michigan Attorney General's Consumer Protection Division.
