Dear Home Depot,I purchased a Defiant Motion Sensing Security Light (model # DFI-****-WH), it was purchased on Feb-2020 and it has now stopped working. I tried calling the Defiant Customer **********************. The first call, the service representative dropped the call in the middle of the call without collecting any information from me. The second call, I was given a Case Number being told I would get a call back (Case ********). I would like this Light Fixture REPLACED please with either the same exact model, or an equivalent one that has the Base Plate for installation, and the *****to-**** feature. This is my third light of this model that I have purchased that fails before the 5-year warranty. Reason I like it is due to the easy-install, but the light fixture stops working around 2-years. And since the bulbs cannot be replaced I have to replace the entire fixture. I'm hoping you can REPLACE the fixture with the same one, an equivalent one, or just refund me the purchase. Thank youBusiness Response

On March 12, 2023 my wife and I filed a warranty claim (job *******) for water leaking from our recently installed windows by The Home Depot Home Services. We also informed them at this time that all interior caulk sealant was cracking around the windows. ********************************* (ext 538 per number provided) became our claim manager. Due to heavy rains in Colorado we pleaded for expedited service to prevent further damage. On 5/19, due to lack of response, we called to elevate situation to branch manager ******. More delays, lack of accountability, and lack of sense of urgency ensued. On 6/7, estimator *** was dispatched to survey damages. This took several voicemails to ******** to coordinate. No sense of urgency was embraced as water damage continued due to heavy rain. He confirmed all window sealing will need to be redone, incorrect caulk was used, water is coming into our home walls, the matter should be treated seriously. Over the span of weeks, repair services were scheduled and executed which resulted in the removal of exterior window trim to mitigate improper sealing. Upon this, mold was found and the contractors called a stop work, requesting mold mitigation. From here, the nightmare continued as we dealt with extremely poor communication on next steps and response times from Home Depot and ******************* with ******** CMS to expedite mold claim. After endless unnecessary back and forth, payment was received to pay contractor for mold mitigation. As of 9/11/23, we found out ****** had quit. No assurances were received that our many times over elevated window claim was being appropriately handled. I had to leave voicemails/emails with ******** again that mold mitigation was completed and this needs to be handled immediately. 9/12 I finally received a callback. Sealing repairs are set for 9/18. Poor taping prep a few days prior to 9/11 by contractor has led to more water damage inside home from heavy rains. This is the worst customer ********************** experience!!!Business Response

I received an email from Home Depot at an address I have repeatedly told them I did not use anymore. The email contained an address to print the manual. When I originally went to Home Depot with my complaint, they printed this for me, however it is formatted at half the size of the original, barely readable with a magnifying glass. I took the link to DATAFLOW, a local printing company to reformat and print. This job is not yet complete, but they estimate it will be about $46.00. I expect to be reimbursed for this plus $100 for my time and trouble. I do not want a Home Depot gift card as I do plan on ever shopping there again. Thank-you for your attention to this matter.

Home Depot and Echo have a long standing partnership to carry Echos cordless yard tools. They have abandoned the *************************************************** favor of a new format using 56 volt batteries and chargers. As a result, I can no longer purchase the 58 volt batteries and chargers from Home Depot. As my current batteries are dying, I will soon be left with a worthless 58 volt based chainsaw, hedge trimmer, and blower. It would require me to spend close to $900 to replace these tools with new one when my current batteries die. Im retired, and I dont believe its fair for these companies to disrespect their customers loyalty to their brands and abandon them in this way. I believe it would be fair and right for Home Depot and Echo to offer to replace free of charge my current chainsaw, hedge trimmer, and blower with new 56 volt versions of those tolls including three 5.0 Ah batteries and chargers. Thank you for your help. Im hoping for a positive resolution to this complaint so that I dont have to use social media to complain about Home Depot and Echo.Business Response

All of the doors (3 total) have gaps within the frame, allowing air to escape and noticeable drafts all around. The fire-door is splitting and coming apart, which at times causes the door to jam. The front (storm door) is noticeably warped and does not close completely without force. I made numerous attempts to resolve this with Home Depot, I could not make contact with the installer. One single door jam was given to me at no charge, to be installed on our own. The managers at this store would not help, I overheard a conversation one manager had with the installer speaking poorly about me and instructing him to leave and never return to my home so that they could be done with me. She used expletives and called me names, talking to other store employees while I was in the next aisle. I have been trying tirelessly to get these door frames and doors replaced. I am now told there is nothing they are willing to do at store level and to *** them if I am so unhappy with their work. I have been dealing with medical is***s and trying to get this situation resolved in between. Their work is sloppy, the quality of these doors is beyond explanation. We spent a large amount of money to have this as our end result. We are wasting hundreds of dollars with hot and cold air escaping. I just want this to be made right and to have solid, worthwhile doors in my home. The photos I attached support my claims.Business Response

I purchased a Rheem Hybrid Hot Water Heater from Home Depot in ********, ** on 9/9/18. I also purchased the extended protection plan for $69 in which if for any reason the unit stops working, Home Depot will provide a replacement for 5 years. My unit stopped working on 8/30/23. I reported it to Home Depot with my receipt on 9/1/23. Exactly 8 days before it was due to expire. My wife and myself have been in contact with HD since 9/1/23 and nothing has been resolved up to this point. I have been with out hot water in my home for 16 days. This is absolutely absurd. When I initiated the claim I was told a tech would come out and assess and replace the pair only to find out they dont make the replacement pair for my unit because they now offer a newer unit. Since then I have been waiting for the ok for them to replace my unit. They have now responded with saying that I need to file a claim with the manufacturer of the water heater since it is still under warranty with them. At this point HD needs to honor the extended warranty and replace the water heater. This is what I paid for in the first place. I have attached pics of my receipt and a pic of the unit without power. Please get back to me ASAP.Business Response

The Home Depot is BBB Accredited.
This business has committed to upholding the BBB Standards for Trust.
Why choose a BBB Accredited Business?BBB Business Profiles may not be reproduced for sales or promotional purposes.
BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.
When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.
BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.
As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
