HP Pavilion x360 screen is loose at the bottom right corner

[eb00]

I have a HP Pavilion x360 laptop & it is only 18 months old, but of course, out of warranty.  I bought it from Amazon & there was no extended warranty offered.

While opening the laptop a few small parts fell out & I found that the bottom part of the touchscreen is loose, as it is sticking out a few mms from the backing of the right side of the bottom corner. The problem gets worse when I open the laptop. The screen itself is not damaged, & it is working.  The right hinge is also loose.

The laptop was not dropped, it ALWAYS travels in a cushioned laptop sleeve.

After seeing the same issue logged by multiple users, we can conclude that this is a manufacturing defect.  The rep at the repair shop I took it to even said it is a known problem but that HP will not acknowledge this.  They are charging me over $500 to fix it & I only paid a little over $700 when I bought it new!  I would like some satisfaction from HP!!!  This is ridiculous!

praveenbv I am in Colorado. As I said in my community post, I KNOW that my laptop is out of warranty. But this is obviously a problem with this model & should be taken care of by HP. The HP authorized repair shop I took it to SAID it was a known problem but that HP would not acknowledge that! That is unacceptable customer service. I would have assumed that a company as large and as old as HP would treat their customers better!

HP customer service is a joke!!  Apparently those tasked with replying to messages in the community never read the previous messages from their co-workers.  HP used to be a reputable company with a good reputation.  No longer!  I will NEVER buy another HP product as long as the company continues on this reprehensible path.  My laptop has a KNOWN problem that has been reported multiple times in the community & even verified by the HP authorized repair shop to which I took it, but HP STILL will not acknowledge the problem & has offered absolutely no solution/satisfaction to this issue.
