Thumbsticks & buttons sticking...

I bought my oculus quest yesterday and immediately noticed that the right hand thumb stick would sometimes stick in position when pushed to the right. 
However, today, it constantly gets stuck in this position and is becoming annoying. I've literally only been using it for a couple hours tops.

Also one of the buttons on the left controller, feels like it might be beginning to stick also. It kind of double clicks when released - Its hard to explain, but its the only button that does it on the two controllers.

Everywhere is sold out at the moment, so getting a replacement is not an option currently...

Anyone else had this issue or similar at all?

Hey @FarmerB, I'm sorry to hear about your experience. It's unusual for the thumb sticks and buttons to stick like that. Please contact support at https://support.oculus.com so we can help you with this. Thanks! -Rick

I have had a similar issue with the right controller thumb stick. I used a dry Teflon based lubricant (very sparingly) and that fully fixed the issue.  You can get it at Home Depot or Walmart (Dry Lock Lubricant).  Your other alternative is send it in for repair/replacement with Oculus.  I did not want to wait.  Good Luck.
