Mid 2012 13" has a warping bottom

Hi all,

Approximately two weeks ago I noticed my mid 2012 13" MBP was rocking when sitting on a flat and level surface. It never gets hot to the point where the aluminum is pliable, not that it should bend at all. Anybody else having this kind of issue? I bought it this past January. Is this something Apple will fix or will I have to live with it?

MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2012), OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.3)

it comes with a one year warranty. Take it to Apple or an AASP for evaluation. It could be a faulty battery that is expanding.

Thanks for the help. Took it to the Apple Store. Somehow the bottom had warped and they ended up replacing the trackpad, top case and bottom case. Hopefully no more problems like this.
