My Speedy Infini 2013 was unrepairable so I got store credit.
I was secretly hoping for the same with my SL but now it's back with me, I've remembered why I bought it in the first place.
My Speedy in Aurore is 2012 and so far, it's not showing any signs of melting.
 
I brought in 4 bags I purchased between 2014-2015 and on the spot I got store credit.
1. Soft Lockit MM (so sad I loved the bag but handles melted and the strap and I barely used it)
2. Lumi PM in Black - same problem
3. speedy empriente 30 - same problem
4. Epi Neverfull Noir - same probelm

though I got 4 wonderful bags instead, including a Cappucine - I miss those bags, but melting straps and handles I couldn't use them. sad I barely even used them
 
I just received a phone call from LV services indicating that I had purchased seven items during 2014,15, &16 that might possibly have issues:
Monogram Métis Hobo
Monogram Pochette Métis
Empriente Montaigne in noir
Empriente key cles in noir
Empriente wallet in noir
Red Estrella
Noir Lockit With python Handles

They were offering to set up an appointment with my local boutique to bring in all the items and receive store credit for each.
 
I wish those who have had calls from LV to bring in their goods would tell us what state they live in--I'm in No. California and still awaiting such a call regarding my Speedy Infini 25 bought in 2015 but made in 2013.
These calls seem to be hit or miss or all from same store location....?
TIA

I received a call about my speedy 25 in infini and bastille in noir around Thanksgiving, they were bought back in 2015 from the Bay Area after the call I brought the bags back to the boutique and exchanged them for other items.
 
At least in the US, you don't need to wait for a call if your items are eligible (browse this thread for confirmed items/years) and you have the purchase info for them to check. You can proactively get in there and they'll evaluate and respond with the store policy on exchange/credit.

Thank you for responding —I bought mine at NM in SF. They closed so perhaps that’s why I haven’t heard anything, but I called corporate office and inquired, they knew nothing about any recall of that bag.......
 
Hi !
Sadly, my empreinte speedy 25 in Aurore is not repairable and was deemed defective :sad::sad:

LV wants me to choose another bag instead of giving me store credit. I might try another store. I really like those two bags (empreinte pochette Metis et tuileries) but think maybe something in 2019 collection will catch my eye :biggrin:

Between the two, what would you pick ?
