Iphone 7 , Audio ic system

There is currently no recall program for the audio IC issue and Apple does not recognize it as an industry defect. They will not fix it for free and it does not matter what the 3rd party repair sites nor internet says. You can pay to replace the iPhone out of warranty by Apple and if in the future they determine it is a defect you may receive reimbursement.

Is it still under warranty? If it isn't then generally you have no recourse other than to pay for the repairs unless there's a special repair policy.

OK - I get that there's a claim about the so-called "loop disease". It may in fact occur in some cases. However, until such time as Apple considers it to be worthy of a repair campaign or there's some sort of resolution to any legal claims, you have have no right to have it repaired just because you feel it should be repaired.

No it is not under warranty , but it is Industry defect so i am not responsible for it

That's an interesting argument, but one that seems to be based more on emotion than on any legal requirement to provide a remedy. Warranties are clearly marked as limited because they have limitations on time and scope. In general, parts carry no warranty for the end user. The assembler/seller has a warranty on the assembled product. I have heard of there being specific defects in parts where perhaps the assembler and manufacturer had a contract that required payment for such defects, but I'd be surprised if that's happened for whatever you're claiming is your experienced defect.
