I tried to fill out repair order, but, as mentioned above, those are the only options i got.

Bumper IS a known issue, as you can see.

Btw., it doenst matter what caused 2 years warranty, it is in place and i'm in the right to use it.

Yeah the Elite Series 2 was basically improved from feedback of users of the Elite Series 1

Many problems were fixed including the bumpers and the grip that also came loose after some time

Hope to get an Elite Controller one day

Microsoft has acknowledged these reports and has been providing support and warranty replacements for affected controllers.

Regarding a long-term fix or an official statement from Microsoft, I don't have specific information on any plans they may have for addressing the bumper issue in future controller revisions. It's recommended to stay updated with official announcements from Microsoft.

As for the replacement process, it's understandable that you would prefer a quicker resolution. While it may take some time, it allows Microsoft to provide a thorough service.

Remember to provide feedback to Microsoft regarding your experience and concerns. Customer feedback is valuable for companies to understand user experiences and make improvements to their products and services.

I hope your replacement process goes smoothly, and if you have any further questions or concerns, feel free to let me know.

Hi David,

I have my warranty options from Microsoft - they are not ideal - but at least I know what they are.

Would you mind answering the other portion of my question: has Microsoft acknowledged this problem? It is very clear to me after talking with several ES2 owners, Geek Squad, seeing YT videos, etc. that this is a wide spread issue.

Thanks,

Max

Hello Max_063, My name is David. I am an independent advisor, happy to help you today.

I'm sorry to hear that you are experiencing bumper issues on your Xbox Elite Series 2 controller. I understand your frustration and concern, especially if this is the second controller with the same problem.

If your controller is within the warranty period, it is important to indicate this when contacting Xbox support. They may offer you repair or replacement options at no additional cost.

Let me know if you want to use the warranty.

Best regards.
