I'd written you four weeks ago or so concerning the Lennox HVAC system installed in my house on 15 July of this year. If you'd read the letter, you may recall my complaint of the handler sounding like a freight train on my roof (or something to that effect).
Since I haven't received a reply, I'm assuming Lennox has no desire to provide anything more than sub-par customer service. After all, how long does it take for a letter to get from Dallas to Ft. Worth? Incidentally, I did include my phone number.
That being said, today, 25 Aug 2008, the AC quit running altogether. That's about 41 days before your product failed. So quality is not Lennox's strong suit either.
Not much left, is there?
Here's what I'm going to do:
1) Naturally, I shall file a complaint with the BBB.
2) Being a fan of message boards and forums, and the Internet being such a powerful medium, I shall post this letter and other specifics.
3) An FYI letter shall be sent to Consumer Reports.
4) A formal written complaint shall be made to the Texas State Attorneys office. Greg Abbott is the Attorney General of Texas. I bet you already knew that, didn't you?
Noted is the fact you fail to include your email address on the Lennox Contact Us page (http://www.lennox.com/about/contact-us.asp for you forum patrons and lurkers).
This prevents your server from bogging down and slowing Internet connections due to the overwhelming amount of complaints to the Lennox Corporation. An old but effective trick. Thank you for keeping my Internet connection moving!

I Have had the same problems
AUTHOR: Frank - (U.S.A.)

I spoke with Sam in your department today and he requested that I write you this letter and explain my problem. As of Monday September 16, 2008 I am without air. I have 7 children 5, 8 and under ( 2-8's, 7, 6, 3 ) I do have two A/C units the other is in my master bed room and one other bed room and at this time we have two window units one on the second floor and one in the kitchen. The problem I have is that the unit was installed in Mid-June of 2002 and I have had a lot of problems with this unit as follows.
Jack's invoices:
Date installed new: 06/12/02 invoice # 32046 total $ 4,200.00 installed unit new
Service invoice: 08/19/02 invoice # 32417 total $ 426.00 rewire unit
Service invoice: 01/16/07 invoice # 44940 total $ 113.00 Buzzing unit (power)
Service invoice: 02/14/07 invoice # 45016 total $ 0.00 Secured line
Service invoice: 02/21/07 invoice # 45215 total $ 0.00 moved duct
Service invoice: 04/22/07 invoice # 45762 total $ 600.00 Compressor
Service invoice: 04/23/07 invoice # 45750 total $ 0.00 tripped breaker
Service invoice: 04/25/07 invoice # 45757 total $ 192.00 Compressor bad
Service invoice: Compressor replaced NO BILL GIVEN
Service invoice: 07/03/07 invoice # 46502 total $ 118.00 Compressor bad
Service invoice: 07/06/07 invoice # 46508 total $ 600.00 Compressor
Service invoice: 07/06/07 invoice # 45557 total $ 0.00 checked unit
There are other tickets I will find them and forward if necessary. And enclosed you will find the invoice from McWilliams & Sons, Inc. stating that the compressor is bad again!!!
I am growing weary in the fact that I am throwing good money after bad; the fact is I could have bought a NEW unit for the money I have spent keeping this BAD unit running. The warranty is not any good if I have to keep spending money to keep it running.
So the only way to resolve this matter is for LENNOX to have a NEW unit put in with a FULL warranty to compensate for all the trouble I and my family has gone thru or REFUND ALL our money $6,330.00 this is not including the other invoices that I have but to speed the process up we will accept $6,330.00 if sent within 15 days. Please keep in mind that we are WITHOUT air since 09/16/2008.
I spoke with Jeff West about the unit today. Jeff and the rep from Schmitt both told me over the phone (without looking at the equipment that it was an installation problem but both refused to put it in writing. The refusal to put it in writing is either to protect the installer which would mean the unit is bad and Lennox would be liable or it is installed incorrectly and Jack's Shore Breeze, Inc. (who was an authorized Lennox dealer) would be liable. Either way I am getting the short end of the stick!
My request is to either have the unit replace with a new unit or get a refund of $6,249.00. I have spent $4,200.00 on the unit new and $2,049.00 to repair a bad unit.
Today I contacted the Federal Trade Commission on this matter.

Lennox Is Good Stuff.

We had our HVAC replaced here back in June and it works GREAT, and the compressor is so silent compared to my neighbors new Freight TRANE.
