Broke track pad on my MacBook Pro that is less then 18 months old . I was told it will cost $439 to fix! Help!

I am shocked that my MacBook Pro is only 18 months old and it already needs such a costly repair. I thought this was going to be a better computer lesson learned the hard way about a $2000 lesson I will never buy another Apple computer again. I feel like I got a lemon. Any suggestions?
