Xbox One Controller Drifting Up

I haven´t had the drifting, but my two controllers have died, one is covered by warranty as it came with the console, which I bought back in December, but apparently they won't replace the other, as they only give a paltry 90-day period to a thing that's supposed to last for years. Pardon for hijacking your thread, but I think that if they see that there are multiple costumers voicing their concerns, they may give us a propper answer.

My day one Xbox controller drifts up horribly. Most games are unplayable with it. Worried they will only replace for a standard controller which would be BS. Also the headset broke.... And the Xbox doesn't read discs properly.... All in all a great product!

Having the same issue while playing destiny. My left analog stick drifts to the point where I can no longer play, if Microsoft wants me to buy their games, I need a controller that will last for more than six months.  

I have 3 controllers all together I have to repair cases going so I went about a hour or so ago to buy another which I will need while I send out my other two, within 30 mins left thumbstick went on the new one popping sticking grinding and when it happens shake ur controller u will here the broken little clip inside moving around this is absolutely a big issue!!!!!!!!!  I have read a lot about this the past two weeks and there are a lot of others with the same issue fix it!!! One *** off customer

I've had the same issue with the left thumbstick drifting up. In CoD, when zoomed down sight, the zoom function goes away on its own because the left thumbstick acts up, makes the game unplayable. Has anybody had any success with MS as far as replacement goes?

Having this exact same issue! So frustrating!

Hello, I am also experiencing right analog stick floating up. I have tried two different controllers on multiple games including Titalfall and FarCry 4 and they both float. Have also tried plugging them into the usb port and updating them. Still no luck. Seems to me there is a firmware issue. Anyone else?

I have seen this while playing COD AW
