Xiaomi India — Poco X3 front camera is not working

Address:

India

Hi Team,
I have purchased xiaomi poco x3 phone 1.5year back. I am using the latest patch of software which is 13.0.1. However, suddenly my front camera is not working, if I press front camera, it freezes. I have taken my phone to service center and they are saying most of the user are facing this issue and it will cost me 7k and all of data will erase while they replace an IC inside motherboard. Now my question is why I should pay extra when it's complete fault from Xiaomi or manufacture. Isn't it cheating customer on the name of some malfunction?
