I've not tried it but if you've got some electrical contact cleaner you could spray some in, move it around a bit and see if it resets back to centre. Let it dry out for a bit before powering it on.
As far as I know a lot of controllers (joycons, DS5, etc.) Have the same issue as they all use the same internal part.
You could possibly order one and have a go at replacing it. Seems a lot for something defective pretty much right out the box though.

Any way I can fix without bringing it back, it's going to take at least a week for it

Got the stuff you need in order to solder and an interest in electronics repair? Go for it. Ten to one that's an off-the-shelf part.
Otherwise get it replaced.

Unrelated, but anyone know if they fixed the problem of not being able to add the '+' button to the macro sequence?
