I have 3 controllers. 2 are series elite 2 controllers, and 1 is the one that came with my xbox series x. The one that came with the xbox started getting horrible stick drift today
The other 2 controllers both have issues with the bumpers rendering them useless.
What can I do? I can not afford a new controller and realistically i shouldnt have to buy a new controller when these cost hundreds of dollars. Is there anything i can easily do myself? Or should i just bring it to a repair shop? I have been looking online for hours and found nothing helpful.
#Controllers have various issues

Try use Xbox accessories app and try use dead zones to help migate the one that has stick shift. If any of the controllers r still in warranty send it for a replacement. That's about anybody here can recommend u do without buying a new controller.
