There is no update or release of a service program for your 2017.

Mine too. 2017 - 2 thunderbolt ports...Apple is just not going to fix this problem for 2017 models, maybe because the number of complaints are too few for them to budge. So either you fork out about 50% of the Macbook Pro's price to fix it at Apple Service Centre, or you find cheaper third party fixer, or throw the Macbook Pro and future Apple products into dustbin.
