Incident narrative
SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20170224-7D0A7-2147405766. Matched catalog product: Apple iPhone 7. Source model text: iphone 7 plus. Incident: I purchased an iPhone 7 plus on 11/18/2016 and in the last month I have gone through three charging cables. Apple brand cables at $21 with apple brand charger. The phone is burning a connection and burnt it so bad it cant make a connection to charge the phone. I've contacted apple and nothing has been done. Can't duplicate problem is what I'm told witch is a lie. They keep trying to get me to buy apple care. I've also contacted sprint with no help there as well. as its only three months old I should not have to send it in for repair but have the phone swapped with a new one.
