Xbox One controllers keep breaking!

I bought my Xbox One October 2014. Since then I have been through at least 6 controllers. It's become a monthly issue. My 360 controllers didn't break and neither does my Steam controller.

xbox controllers keep breaking

This is starting to look like a RROD situation. I shouldn't have 2 failing controllers with drifting analog sticks when it hasn't even been two years yet. I shouldn't have to pay 60 dollars to replace my controllers or learn how to solder to fix them because
you are not supporting your defective product. I have been a loyal customer and now I feel like I'm being crapped on. This problems gonna get bigger and bigger till it makes news. It is just a matter of time.

Hey BendingGecko74,

Could you expand on how your controller has broken? What has happened to the controller? We may be able to identify a fix for this or something that isn't working quite right.

Take care,

 

The bumpers come loose and fall out. And ... this is rather difficult to explain, both joysticks loose the ability to control properly and leave you in a "looking up" or walking forward motion. I am not an "angry throw my controller" player and am pretty
gentle on my toys. Replacing the controller(s) is getting very old .... and costly. Thank you for asking

 

I need to clarify... I am posting for my husband. He has a different gamer tag and has logged all the hours.... I play on pc.

 

Hey BendingGecko744,

Thank you for responding so quickly - obviously this issue is not something we want to happen. Where have you been buying the controllers from / replacing them from?

I totally understand that you're gentle with the controllers, and the issues don't seem like something that should happen with parts falling off. Can I just check if you're ensuring that the controllers are fully updated also in the settings menu?

Thanks,

 

We have been buying the controllers at Wal-Mart. They are fully updated.

Thank You,

BendingGecko
