    My controllers left stick drifts and its response is slow.


    My controller's left stick sometimes drifts up or down when I'm not touching it and when I am using it it's responses are sluggish. I have another controller and it's working fine. I have done all the troubleshooting and still the problem persists. I only
    bought this controller back in December and it has been experiencing problems for a while. If you could help me it would be appreciated.

    :)

    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.

    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

    The controllers only have a 90 day warranty (it may be different if you live in the EU). You can try to
    schedule a repair, but you may end up buying a new controller anyway.

    You're pretty much left to your own devices at this point.

    It's not the answer you'd like to hear, but these are your only options left for an out-of-warranty controller.

    Anybody else going through controllers?

    My Day One Controller started to do both drift and stuttering in the opposite direction on the Left Stick. Controller number 2 seems to be okay for now and its about a year old.

    I've experienced the left stick drifting on 2 controllers.
