    Elite Controller Grip Coming Off


    Pretty simple problem. One of the hand grips on my Elite controller is peeling off. The controller still works perfectly, but the comfort has gone out the window. I tried some Krazy Glue and held it in place with rubber bands, but that did nothing. I've
    done a chat with support, but their solution was to send it back and pay full price for a new one. Obviously I don't want to spend another $150 to replace a fully functional controller, but it is incredibly difficult to use it with one of the grips digging
    into my hand.

    :)

    elite controller handle grip coming off

    Hi Killa MikeTitan,

    Sorry the grip is coming off your Elite controller. Unfortunately Xbox accessories only have a 90 day warranty, and this includes the Elite controller. If you did purchase on day one, then the warranty would be expired. Your only option would be to replace
    the controller, or try to use an adhesive to get the grip to stick back down.

    elite controller handle grip coming off

    I've bought 3 elite controllers and literally at 91 days of owning each of then the grip started peeling off. The worst part is if u try to put it back its like the grip is now to big for the controller and no longer fits correctly... this happened on all
    3 of mine

    Elite Controller

    I've seen a lot of issues about the grips coming off actually.

    I'm hoping the 2nd gen elite controller will resolve that issue.

    if it's under warranty you can get it serviced, if it's not I'm afraid you'll have to repair it yourself or buy a new one.

    Xbox Elite or Scuf?

    Hey,

    Current elite controller owner and like others have said the grips do come off in time. But besides that the controller has been well worth the purchase and I'd buy it again. I'm intrigued by a previous ambassadors use of Scuf grips on their elite controller.
    If they're more reliable and resistant than I'd definitely try that idea out.
