Sony owned up to it as far as I heard and was accepting returns. I have 2 controllers, one bundled and one separate, from launch day that did not have this issue. I have however, had the sticking r1 and l1 buttons on both controllers but the q-tip knife pop off solution fixed them both.  The issue became especially noticeable trying to use the rifle in Dead Nation.

My thoughts are that my left analog stick is still losing rubber. Don't know why it didn't blew up over time with people using the DS4 more.

There never was a problem. It was isolated and gassed up by haters.

Why should haters make pics of their stick issues? Do you really think people bought the controller or PS4 with controller just to hype up the issue?

Comments like that are the reason I never posted any pics or made a big deal out of it.
