On its community forum, Dell has confirmed that it is now replacing batteries for XPS 15 9550 owners. Even if your XPS 15 9550 notebook is out of warranty, you are eligible for the replacement. There are apparently problems with batches of 84 Wh batteries in the XPS 15 9550 that led to the battery bulging and pushing against the trackpad.
While there are no known serious issues with the XPS 15 9550 notebooks such as explosions, due to battery swelling, users were reporting that their trackpads were no longer functioning properly. Until now, the only way to fix this issue was to purchase new 84Wh or 97Wh batteries used in the more recent XPS 15 9560.
