One of this season's Weekly Challenges in Fortnite instructs the player to buy something from a malfunctioning vending machine.
In the battle royale, players can not only pick up loot from chests, but also purchase guns and more from NPCS and vending machines.
The biggest issue players are coming across is having to actually find the vending machines in question.

— Fortnite (@FortniteGame) January 11, 2022Fortnite Malfunctioning Vending Machine: How to Find
Vending machines can be found at Camp Cuddle, Coney Crossroads, Greasy Grove, Conker's Speedway, The Joneses, The Daily Bugle, and pretty much every other major location on the map.
Despite this, it's pretty much random chance to find a broken one. Unfortunately for players, they can't just hit a vending machine with their pickaxe for it to break; it has to actually be found that way.
This means you most likely won't find one on your first try, but some people will get lucky. If you're unable to find one, try getting into a car and driving around to all the major locations before the circle closes to see if you can get your challenge done quickly.
Above, players can see what a malfunctioning vending machine looks like, so they can easily spot it when they're out exploring the map.
