Default AW: Querying reliability of M7 optical DX

I received my camera back after 14 weeks in repair due to an unreliable DX reader. They retrofitted the new optical reader. I tried out the camera for the first time today, and the optical reader also was highly intermittent. I am considering sending it back in for another several months of repair, but wish to know that a correctly-functioning optical reader is robust, and that my reader is definitely the exception to the rule.

Thank you.

Eric, I am using two M7 with optial reader since it was available and had no problems until today. The optical reader is definitly reliable. Did they add a washer on the base plate to keep the film canister in its position?
