Nest Cam deteriorating plastics

BSP
Community Member

Note: there was no doorbell (wired) option so selected battery

The plastic is deteriorating and susceptible to cutting peoples fingers. Its now out of warranty as it is over a year., and it does not seem you can replace just the plastic housing... Anyone else seeing this?

 

Cannot seem to post pictures for reference.

Yours is the second post today on this issue. 

There are 322 threads in this forum on "peeling" Nest Hello doorbells and another 49 on "delaminating" doorbells. One of our Nest Hellos, not quite 2 years old, is peeling. One thread on failure of the internal battery in the Nest Hello (https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/Cameras-and-Doorbells/Nest-Hello-Doorbell-cuts-out-when-butto...), which causes the doorbell to go offline briefly when the button is pressed, has over 800 replies. This has happened on 2 of our Nest Hellos. Yet Google Nest's response to both issues is that it "cannot" replace them because they are past the 1-year warranty period. So we bought silicone skins and disabled the internal chime as workarounds.

You could try contacting Support (https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp) to see if they'll make an exception in your case. Or maybe a Google Nest Community Specialist will step in here and ask you to fill out a "form" on your case. (Since most of those threads are then locked, it's hard to tell what, if anything, Google Nest does in response to those "forms".)
