If only. My wife's phone is affected by a Google battery recall. You basically get $50 of shut-up money and get to live with a software update that nerfs your phone to an almost unusable state, or you can try and have a local, approved repair shop replace the faulty battery.
We're living in a large city, there is exactly one approved store available. You can't contact them by email, no one has picked up the phone in weeks. She is close taking the $50.
