Thanks but I’m in Mexico now and the nearest authorized repair store is 3 hours from where I am, I wanted to know if this is a common issue or if there was something I could do to fix it in the meantime before I can plan a trip to get it checked, I don’t want to take it anywhere that isn’t an authorized store
