    My garmin F6x bricked with some fw issue.  I RMA for a replacement.  Had it a few months. just in the past two days. I noticed that the vibration notifcation.  Not normal. not normal at all.  It does almost sound is if its loose or something.  Not sure how else to describe.  Its just different.  I dont know how long a replacement RMA watch has warranty for.  but I hope is more than 30 days.  


    Update:   I chatted with customer support. The bad new is the RMA replacement I got in Feb 2020, only had a 90 warranty. So I've crap out of luck with that.  Unless I want to drop $190 for a repair.  The other new that might help others.   They recommended I take off the band.   As absurd as that sounds, I did take it off and the gawd awful vibration did sound different.  So I'm experiment with and without band.  but maybe that is a component to the issue.  Somehow the bad placement was making it seem worse.  something to try for those of you out of warranty

    I am sorry you had an issue with your watch. When you warranty replace a Fenix watch, you will continue your original warranty unless it is ending in less than 90-days. If you are less than 90-days from it expiring or you exchange your watch outside of warranty, then you will receive the 90-day warranty on the rebuilt replacement.

    If you have any further questions, you are welcome to highlight my name and send me a direct PM. I will be happy to assist further.
