Kis update, az utolsó mondat nagyon érdekes (ezek alapján a cég már hónapok óta tud a problémáról, kezeli is és számolt is vele, csak nem mondták ki eddig nyíltan hogy van ilyen probléma):
First Solar has determined there are approximately 232,000 modules in the field, manufactured between October 2008 and June 2009, which may over time develop a loose cord plate attachment. We know the serial numbers of the affected modules and are working proactively with the system owners to repair or replace the affected modules consistent with our workmanship warranty. For roof-mounted systems we also will remove and replace the affected modules at no cost to the system owner, which is above and beyond our standard workmanship warranty. The issue is not expected to have a significant impact on earnings and was considered in the updated financial guidance for 2012 that we announced on August 1st.
