    Controller stick drift


    I have just opened my new controller for the series x and it has a lot of stick drift issues as well as trigger problems. I am trying to request a replacement but it will not work. I just need to speak to someone on the phone for some help bur Everytime I put my phone number in there’s an ‘issue’ on Xbox support’s side. Please can I just be contacted or be able to contact someone.

    :)

    Xbox One Controller, left stick faulting!!!

    I have two controllers BOTH with drift issues. The one left thumb-stick drifts upwards and the other one has a right thumb-stick drift issue that drifts upward.

    Like what the heck am I suppose to do. #SMH

    controller drift

    That is strange. I've only ever had stick drift on my old 360 controllers. I don't know if the standard Xbox one controllers have it, but the Xbox Elite controller sticks can be adjusted to have dead zones to avoid drift. Check in the Xbox Accessories
    app if you can adjust it for normal controllers.
    Have my elite controller set up and still drifts. Can't do standard controller. Did notice they drift worse on any COD.

    Sounds like stick drift on your controller.

    Xbox Glitch?

    It is likely controller stick drift, you will need a brand new controller

    Xbox one controller failures

    We have 3 X1 controllers drift forward between me and my son, all left stick drift forward. Pretty sure it's from playing games where sprint is assigned to the left stick. The army camo controller only lasted about a month. Strange thing is, my day one 2013
    controller is still fine.

    Anyway, I use to get through 360 controllers at a similar rate, only difference was the left sticks drifted left on those.
