How much does it cost to repair a water-damaged MacBook Air trackpad at the Apple Store?

I am experiencing an issue with the trackpad of my MacBook Air 13. It was exposed to water, and after some time, it has become unresponsive — I am unable to click or use the touch functionality. All other components of the device appear to be unaffected.

Unfortunately, my warranty has already expired.

I would like to inquire about the cost of repair or replacement at the Apple Store.

Thank you in advance for your support.

There is no fixed price and it will have to be evaluated at the Apple Store. Once that is done they will give you your options. Don't be surprised if they need to replace the Logic Board and the cost of the repair may make purchasing a new device the better choice, but that will be a decision you will need to make after you get a repair estimate.
