I've seen about four of these in the last couple weeks with the same dc jack issue. Most are broken and now inside of the laptop. One of my customers told me his was only a couple of months old:(
The dc jack used is a cable style dc jack that plugs into the motherboard via a cable that has the dc jack soldered onto the end vs. the traditional soldered onto the motherboard jack.
The L355D has two plastic pieces that the dc jack fits in and uses for support. Under normal wear and tear these plastic pieces can break and leave the dc jack stuck inside the laptop. The other symptom is the plastic on the dc jack breaks which results in the same failure.
We fix the jack issue for $65 unless parts are needed which is an additional $20.
