The Nintendo Life portal noticed a new page on the British website of the Nintendo Support, which says that any user of Switch drifting Joycos can send them for repairs for free, regardless of how expired the warranty service is overdue.

Previously, Nintendo adhered to such a policy in North America, and now it also applies to EEZ countries (European Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway), Great Britain and Switzerland.

"before the further notice in the European Economic Zone (EEZ), Great Britain and Switzerland Nintendo will not be charged from you with a fee for repair [Joicons] for problems with responsiveness, regardless of whether it is caused by a defect or wear," the saying says Nintendo technical support website

The exception for refusing a free repairs are cases when the problem with Joy-Con was caused by third-party accessories, random damage or careless use. Also, the company will not provide post-warranty service if someone has already opened the controller for independent repair of the steak.

Joy-Con users have come across a drift since the launch of the Nintendo Switch in 2017. Despite all the improvements of the internal constitution, the problem is still maintained even in the new revision of controllers. In April last year, the ex-employee of the American service center Nintendo told Kotaku that at some point, thousands of Joy-Cons began to receive them weekly, as a result of which the workshop had to equip a new workplace exclusively for the repair of Switch controllers.
