== | ==Breaking triggers== | ||
The trigger on V10 and V11 models of the Dyson cordless vacuums are very prone to breaking as the material and reinforcement of the piece is not sufficient. Recent updates to manufacturing has also restricted serviceability of the product to repair the issue. | |||
Several third party replacements and replacement tutorials are available.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Dyson V11 Trigger Replacement |url=https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Dyson+V11+Trigger+Replacement/147481 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250522151922/https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Dyson+V11+Trigger+Replacement/147481 |archive-date=22 May 2025 |access-date=2 Jun 2025 |website=iFixit}}</ref> | |||

=== Dyson's response === | |||
Triggers are not replaceable on their own, and require a new main body component in order to replace the trigger.<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 Jun 2023 |title=Cordless V11 - Trigger Switch Issue |url=https://community.dyson.com/using-your-dyson-cordless-vacuum-or-wet-cleaner-133/cordless-v11-trigger-switch-issue-1688 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250602082838/https://community.dyson.com/using-your-dyson-cordless-vacuum-or-wet-cleaner-133/cordless-v11-trigger-switch-issue-1688 |archive-date=2 Jun 2025 |access-date=2 Jun 2025 |via=Dyson Community}}</ref> | |||
