Vice caché KNOWN - Battery defective

To synthesize my displeasure: Samsung SAIT long as S4 equipped with batteries MADE IN CHINA are defective, are at risk of combustion and explosion, and should be taken as a guarantee (hidden defects), yet no steps n ' was undertaken with consumers, who often buy their own expense a new replacement battery.

I met the battery problem that cut anytime after a few months of use. Unable to restart the phone without putting it back on the charger. In fact the battery is inflated. After some Internet research, I should have done before my purchase, it turns out that this battery of real burning risk if I understand. The problem concerning MADE IN CHINA batteries, * was already known Samsung on the date of my purchase * and affects so many users as Samsung batteries free trade in Germany in the Samsung shops in 5 minutes. (MADE IN KOREA The batteries are correct).

However, in France, the replacement is not so simple ... It smells locked phone several weeks ...

I contacted the SAV SAMSUNG service by email on the official site. Here is the answer I received. The center in question is 60km from home:
