I just can't make a decision. My two weeks already expired but i don't want to wait to long with contacting apple...
That decision is yours, contact Apple support and report your concerns and let them and yourself make a logical determination of a course of action.

it would apply to all users alike, In that case the "Very big chance" would be an understatement, because the issue is guaranteed to be present in your replacement unit also.
That is a very spurious conclusion. There is no empirical evidence to speak of “very big” regarding a handful of people out of countless 1000’s who own an Air and never experienced this much less heard of same.
It doesn’t “apply to all users alike” due to the fact that identical situations cant be quantified in replication due to a nearly limitless amount of variables, especially in any system which when interacting with 3rd party software in countless configurations causes a fault, as was the case with the volume fluctuation experienced by a small handful of people which has already been fixed with software.
Superficially one would conclude “if it is software, then since that software is identical on all computers, therefore it must apply to most if not all computers” but when it comes to computers the variables approach near infinity, especially when individuals customize their computers in countless ways and limitless variables are introduced when software X interacts with firmware Y, and on and on.
I have a 2013 Air and access to 2 others and my older 2012 Air. I have spent a good bit of time forcing a replication of blackout from sleep occurrence without success on all 4; Intently tried to force and replicate same,…no “luck”.
In fact the only websites that mention this occurrence are 3 sites that use this board, this site as its one and only source for talk upon same. If you have many onlookers peering in, and try to replicate same on an Air, and are completely unsuccessful, that should tell you a great deal.
Additionally a singular person in the other thread on this topic, who happened to have a bad reed sensor and posted a video, who could move his laptop physically and cause a black screen for a few seconds,….his specific hardware fault with one laptop was wrongfully superimposed and “run with” by others drawing spurious conclusions that comprised a fallacy:
“If A causes X, and we experience something that looks like X, then our fault must also be due to A”.
As was the case, the two are unquestionably unrelated. 😊
