I had this happen to a perdix I had bought. Shearwater fixed and explained that the design from early models was prone to this so they changed the design to prevent it. As they get sent in they upgrade to the newer design.

I got mine used last year, so its not that new. No idea how long previous owner had itI’ve never seen this defect reported before or know of anyone who has experienced this - I wonder if it was a recent production issue with out of spec components?
My perdix AI from purchased in march 2020 just had similar issue. Right hand select button actually became detached but wires still connected and working. There was no obvious damage or even a scratch in this area seemed to be an internal crack in plastic that attached to unit. Fortunately it happened as I was preparing for a dive. Shearwater handled it immediately and even offered a loaner. Great service.Noticed today the edge of button lifted. Obviously needs repair but wondering if anyone experienced this, do they know why it happened and what they did about it? The computer still works as normal. But the selector button is loose/squishy now.
