Nintendo offers free Joy-Con repairs in Europe for drifting controllers.

Nintendo is offering free unlimited repairs for Joy-Con drift issues in the European Economic Area, UK, and Switzerland "until further notice." This service is available even if the controllers are no longer under warranty. While the European warranty lasts for 24 months, Nintendo's free repair service is a short-term fix, according to the European Consumer Organisation (BEUC), which hopes that selling products with known defects leading to early failure would be banned in Europe. Joy-Con drift has been a consistent source of frustration for gamers, and Nintendo has faced lawsuits accusing it of selling defective Joy-Con.
