Horizontal black lines at bottom of the screen Macbook Pro 13" (2017 A1708 Touch Bar)

Same issue here. 2017 MacBook Pro without Touch Bar, black horizontal lines appear after using for a while (2-3 hrs), then the screen will stop updating if you don't turn off the screen.

Apple should be responsible for this. They should include 2017 model in this service plan, since it is same hardware issue.

I have this same problem on my Macbook Pro (15-inch, 2017 with Touchbar).

After a few hours of use, especially when I demand more from the processor, for example watching videos or playing games, the black bars start to appear.

The same here in a MacBook Pro from 2016 (Touch Bar) 15''.

This problem requires a repair program from Apple. I have seen many cases.

The solution that gave me at a local Apple Store was to repair (the display or the logic board, impossible to know with the checks of the genius bar technician at the store) and the cost was about 600-700€ in both cases.

I do not understand the huge number of cases with this kind of expensive an proffessional equipment.

My MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2017, Four Thunderbolt 3 Ports, with Touch Bar and Retina Display) also just started to having this issue about 3 days ago. Now it is getting worse as I used the laptop longer. I need to work on my design on laptop everyday, so this is killing me!

My MacBook Pro 2016 (Touch Bar) 13" started showing the same issue recently. The horizontal lines are darker when laptop is cold, such as first opening in the morning. The color of lines slowly become lighter after a while. Half hour later, it's almost invisible but left a 1~2cm pink tint band along the bottom of screen edge.

Same as everyone else in here, I came back from a local Apple Service Provider, and was told this is not covered by flexgate service program, the out-of-warranty fix will cost me near NZ$1500, which is half of the original purchase price.

Since my work is depended on the laptop. I probably have to bite the bullet and get it fix, which sucks. Apple should admit this as a design flaw, same as the notorious keyboard and flexgate issue.

Same for MacBook Pro 15” 2017 Touch. No programs, no feedback from Apple.

i just come back from service center, and they told me that this service plan did not cover black horizontal lines issue. Peole have to paid for it.

My macbook pro 13" 2017 has the same problem. After some time using, I can see these horizontal lines in the bottom...

Me too! I have a MacBook Pro 2017 and it’s be a couple of years and horizontal lines started showing up !!
