Someone has claimed about his brand new p4 loses the prop during the flight, following is the web link to the subject in mandarin, video is also available.
http://bbs.dji.com/thread-55733-1-1.html

The DJI go app shows "prop might has been loosen" when the accident happened, the video freezes at the same time however according to what user said
the DJI go app has continuous showing the altitude reading even after the video transmission is dead, therefore could assuming the power is still on at the moment.
The bird dropped into the sea at the last and has never been retrieved.....

After the flight log analysis, DJI has respond that the user will receive a new p4 for free, the customer service is excellent however still no root-cause been published to the accident..yet.....

Sounds like a scam to get a new P4 to me.

The loosen possibility of quick release propellers is very low. Make sure the props are in good status before flight.

I don't know why DJI changed the prop design anyway! How hard is it to screw 4 props on!? Plastic props + plastic prop connectors = PROBLEMS!
