If I recall, the brushless uses a Ridgid blade guide (same parent company). So the issue is "fixed", but not because it's brushless.
In terms of performance, you're only getting more battery life...

Why fix it? People buy it because it’s cheap, and then once they use it they toss it aside to buy the brushless one instead. Perhaps that’s why they’re a billion dollar company!
And I concur...

amazing how a Bazillion dollar company can't spend the six bucks and fix this.

Please do not buy this. It tracks horribly, wont cut straight, and bending blades is common. I ended up with one of these and after the first use I threw it in a storage tote.

Another negative experience with this one, but from the general battery/cordless perspective.
We took advantage of the 2 2AH battery deal, and bought this to go with it, which was a terrible idea....

If you're mechanically inclined, you can resolve the issue with this jigsaw by replacing the blade guide roller with one from a different brand. It costs no more than $6 if you already have a punch....

I have had the brushless version for a couple years and have been very happy with it. No drift and no issues to speak of. Been a great tool for me.

Concur with the blade twist / drift issues. Not even close to being a precision saw. Other Ryobi tools I’ve owned have been great.

Same. I thought it was me but found others saying the same thing. Ditched it a while back when I upgraded to Dewalt tools and couldn't be happier.
I have a few Ryobi tools that are fantastic,...

I had this and had problems with the blade wandering on me, even with a straight-edge/speed-square. I upgraded to a brushless Dewalt and have been pleased with it and haven't had that issue
