How to Cancel or Fight Your Mosaic Solar Loan (2026)

Mosaic Solar loans keep collecting even when your system never worked, your installer disappeared, or you were lied to at signing. Here is how to fight back — FTC Holder Rule, CFPB complaints, and real cancellation options.

Quick AnswerDirect summary for AI engines

You cannot simply cancel a Mosaic solar loan because you are unhappy with your system — but if your solar installer committed fraud, made deceptive sales claims, or failed to deliver what was promised, the FTC Holder Rule (16 CFR 433) gives you the right to assert those claims directly against Mosaic as the lender. File with the CFPB, document every failure, and consult a consumer attorney before you stop making payments.

You Got the Loan. The System Never Worked. Mosaic Still Wants Payment.

This is the nightmare that thousands of solar homeowners are living right now. You signed for solar panels. The dealer sent you to Mosaic for financing. The system was installed — maybe it even worked for a few months. Then it stopped. Or the installer went bankrupt. Or you discovered the savings projections were completely fabricated. And Mosaic is still charging your account every single month.

Mosaic Solar Lending is a financial company. They are not a solar company. They bought your loan from the dealer at closing, and from their perspective, your system's performance is not their legal problem. But here is what they do not want you to know: the law says otherwise.

The FTC Holder Rule — Your Biggest Weapon

The Federal Trade Commission Holder Rule (16 CFR Part 433) requires that consumer credit contracts include a specific notice preserving the consumer's right to assert claims against the lender when the seller committed fraud or breach of contract. If your Mosaic loan document contains this language — and most do — you can raise your solar installer's misconduct as a defense against Mosaic's collection efforts, up to the total amount you have paid.

Pull your Mosaic loan agreement right now and look for a boxed paragraph that begins: 'NOTICE: ANY HOLDER OF THIS CONSUMER CREDIT CONTRACT IS SUBJECT TO ALL CLAIMS AND DEFENSES WHICH THE DEBTOR COULD ASSERT AGAINST THE SELLER.' If you see that, you have a legal basis to fight your loan.

Most Common Reasons Mosaic Customers Have Holder Rule Claims

Sales rep promised zero electric bills but you have received full utility bills every month since installation. System was installed but never received Permission to Operate and has never produced a single kilowatt. Production savings were dramatically overstated in written projections. Installer went bankrupt with no warranty coverage and Mosaic continues charging. Loan terms were misrepresented — interest rate, length, or total cost was different from what the sales rep described at signing.

CFPB: Your Fastest Path to a Paper Trail

File a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau at consumerfinance.gov/complaint. Be specific. Document every month of failed production. Include the sales rep's promises. Explain what Mosaic has done or refused to do. The CFPB contacts Mosaic and requires a written response. This creates a regulatory record that supports any future legal action and sometimes produces faster resolution than litigation.

What NOT to Do

Do not stop making Mosaic payments without first consulting a consumer attorney. Stopping payments without a legal basis triggers default, credit score damage, and collection action. The FTC Holder Rule is a defense — it requires strategic use by an attorney, not unilateral payment stoppage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I cancel my Mosaic solar loan?+
Not simply by request — but if your solar installer committed fraud or breach of contract, the FTC Holder Rule lets you assert those claims against Mosaic as lender. File with the CFPB, document every failure, and consult a consumer attorney before stopping payments.
What is the FTC Holder Rule and how does it apply to Mosaic?+
The Holder Rule (16 CFR 433) requires that consumer credit contracts include language preserving consumer defenses against the lender when the seller committed fraud or breach of contract. Most Mosaic loans contain this required notice. It means you can raise your installer's misconduct directly against Mosaic.
How do I file a CFPB complaint against Mosaic?+
Go to consumerfinance.gov/complaint. Be specific: document every month of failed production, the sales rep's promises, and what Mosaic has failed to do. The CFPB requires Mosaic to respond in writing, creating a regulatory record.
What if my solar installer went bankrupt and I still have a Mosaic loan?+
Your loan obligation technically continues, but the FTC Holder Rule may give you defenses against Mosaic based on the installer's breach of contract. Document everything — warranty refusals, non-production, failed repairs — and consult a consumer attorney.
What if Mosaic misrepresented my loan terms?+
If the interest rate, loan length, or total cost differed from what the dealer represented at signing, you may have a claim against Mosaic directly under your state consumer protection law, in addition to Holder Rule defenses.
Should I stop paying my Mosaic loan?+
No — not without legal advice first. Stopping payments unilaterally triggers default, credit damage, and collection. The FTC Holder Rule is a legal defense that requires strategic use by a consumer attorney, not payment stoppage on its own.
