Some of you may recall that after crashing my first Inspire, I bought a new one, and just three weeks after receiving it, I had to send it back to DJI for warranty repair as the landing gear inexplicably stopped working.
That was at the end of April.
It took 3 weeks for my Inspire to be checked into DJI's support database, and yesterday, nearly 4 weeks after that check-in, it was finally put into the repair queue. Today, one day later, I was notified that "As a one time courtesy to expedite the repair process your craft has been replaced with a new unit."
While I should be happy they are sending a new unit, I'm instead frustrated that my three week-old Inspire sat in a box in a warehouse for nearly 7 weeks until someone could spend what was probably few minutes deciding to simply replace it with a new one.
Note that I have a P2V+ going through the exact same process right now. It was only 3 months old when the WiFi unit stopped working (no video to mobile device). It's now four weeks into DJI's waiting game.
DJI, please create a separate, expedited logistics process for warranty repairs. They should not go through the same 7-8 week process that non-warranty repairs go through. Warranty issues should take no more than a couple of days. If it is an obvious warranty issue, as my Inspire was, then send a new unit to the customer immediately. Your statement that you are making "a one time courtesy to expedite the repair process" feels neither courteous nor expedited when I had to wait 7 weeks before you even looked at it. Thank you for listening.
