Keep in mind that both the 13” and 15” MacBook Pro’s also get new batteries as they are part of the top case. An out of pocket estimate on a new top case ranges from $399 to $599 so it is definitely a good idea to get it done for $0 while you are eligible. Recently we’ve been seeing a number of Macs which demonstrate the problems addressed by Apple’s Quality Program, but have simply aged out of eligibility for the free repair. 4 years creeps up quickly, so don’t delay! Bring your Mac in for service as soon as you are able. The program covers eligible MacBook, MacBook Air, and MacBook Pro models for four years after the first retail sale of the unit. Fortunately, if you have one of the affected models and are experiencing less-than-ideal functioning, we can replace the top case free of charge thanks to an Apple Quality Program. Many customers worldwide have reported issues such as keys repeating, not registering, or feeling “sticky” or unresponsive.

Unfortunately, this butterfly keyboard mechanism’s first incarnation was a little less durable than expected. Starting with the new MacBook in 2015, Apple launched a wholly new “butterfly” keyboard mechanism, which quickly became the standard on all their laptop models (except for the old-style 20 MacBook Air which still used the MagSafe Charger).

Many MacBook, MacBook Air, and MacBook Pro computers are eligible for a free repair, if you don’t wait too long…
