Hi everyone anyone had issues with their logic board for the MacBook Air Retina 13in 2018 model? My MacBook will have repeated unexpected panic CPU reboots . Apple store says it’s the logic board. They want to charge $600 USD to replace it but upon reading articles online there is a recall for this exact issue! However, not in the specific lot they already recognise there is a fabric fault. Sounds familiar?

Hi ku4hx,
Thanks you for your reply, actually the point that Apple only recognise certain “lots” as fabric-defective, MacBooks whereas the rest of lots get systematically disregard as eligible for the exact same problem seems like an illicit technic to “cut the loses” on low quality constructed computers.
I meant, what is their criteria they use ? Through which process does Apple decide or not to refuse their due diligences regarding defective macs?
I do not see any transparency in the way Apple makes this choices, not accountability in the process with face full clients.
I mean, shouldn’t MacBooks last 7 or 8 years instead of 3?
How many out there are in the same situation ?
Regards
You'll have to deal with Apple on that. Their policies are their policies.
per the ToU, we are not allowed to speculate or discuss Apple policies.
