$10,000 damage caused by Nest malfunction

Rabidi — Wed, 04 May 2022 22:32:16 GMT

My third generation Nest thermostat malfunctioned and turned the AC on while in "heat" mode. My AC unit had a winter cover on it and Nest ran the AC for 3 hours while we were not home. The AC unit burnet out because of overheating under the cover. We could have a had a fire. It is now costing me $10,000 to replace the AC system and Google is not taking any responsibility for the damage. Very unfair!!!
