How long is a Apple Logic board warranty?

Apple replaced my Logic board 6 months ago and paid for it saying it was defected part on the Mac Book Pro.

It failed again and they said that it only had a 3 month warranty on their installs. ***?

Companies usually have a year warranty on hardware.

The part is too expensive and now I have to switch companies to do all my Photobooks.

The last order I did was $1800.00. I really liked mac book layout, simple and easy to set up

and download. Could you suggest another company I can use with my pc?

Thank you

Talk with a senior manager, not just the first callcenter monkey who answers.

90 days or the balance of your original warranty, whichever is longer. I'm not aware of anyone that offers a better warranty, since these any third-party would have to offer used boards, as Apple only sells parts to AASP's.

Go back to the Apple store and ask about "Flat Rate Repair".

The Mac overall comes with a one year warranty. Beyond that warranty, repairs have a service warranty that is 90 additional days from the date of repair. wjosten offered a great suggestion. I had the logic board AND bottom case of my MacBook replaced for $280 ($100 of that was labor) thanks to their flat rate repair offer. The logic board alone would have been $400+.
