Cracked Screen MacBook Pro m1

Hi,

One morning I got up and opened the lid of my 6 month old Macbook Pro M1. To my surprise, vertical and horizontal stripes appeared on the screen in the lower left corner.

I took the macbook to the reseller and after an analysis consisting in taking a photo by the service, the diagnosis was given: MECHANICAL DAMAGE - repair for a fee.

There is no sign of damage on the housing or the matrix.

The screen cracked spontaneously!

My MacBook Air M1 screen cracked for no apparent reason EXACT same issue. Left alone on the table closed—in a.m. big crack with a 1-2”vertical black line. Purchased from US, now in Greece. I thought I was safe as it was new from Apple 2021. -I have Apple Care but no authorised Apple repair dealers here. #notcorrectapple

Cracked MacBook Air screen Today I opened my MacBook Air purchased in 2020, and there was a crack in the screen. This occurred after no use and no single « accident » (someone stepping on it etc). It seems like a major flaw in the device and I’ve been reading about many other instances of this happening online as well as a lawsuit being filed. I feel I should not have to pay for the repairs.

Screen cracked on new MacBook Pro 14” Hello and help! My 2 month old MacBook Pro 14” has got a spontaneously cracked screen. I was editing music on a flight, closed it, returned it to its case, removed it again and there was a crack on the right hand side about 3/4 of the way up. A few streaky crack lines emanating from it and nothing else visible on the display - a dim blur of what should be there. I’ve had MacBooks since 2013, two of them, and I’ve treated this one no differently to those - with care. I was always super impressed with the build quality but this is ridiculous. I’ve seen chat about class actions and admissions of fault from Apple but without any intention to bear the cost. Massively disappointed. This can’t possibly be user error or my responsibility. Anybody else has any experience? Apple… what do you advise and what is your perspective here? If this isn’t a case of accepted manufacturing fault that you will rectify, then you’re selling very expensive gear that you know is not fit for purpose. I can’t imagine even your reputation, solid as it is, will be resilient enough to weather the fallout from a refusal to bear the responsibility. You can’t possibly lay this on users and then expect us to pay for it. I paid nearly 2000 pounds! Any thoughts?
