MacBook Pro 2016 Random Key Repeat Keyboard Issue

After my "n", "b", and "v" key problems, my left "cmd" key just refused to work yesterday. I had to hit it really hard to make it do it's job. I restarted the system, and the problem disappeared. It is still not clear if it is a software or a hardware issue. It would be nice from Apple if they would make a statement about these keyboard problems.

Has any found a solution to this? I've had my MBP for a few months and after 5 weeks, the letter L stopped responding. I called Apple and they had me follow these steps:

How to test an issue in another user account on your Mac

Reset the System Management Controller (SMC) on your Mac

How to reset NVRAM on your Mac

Use safe mode to isolate issues with your Mac

How to clean the keyboard of your MacBook or MacBook Pro

However, none of that worked. I found an alternate solution online which corrected the problem, but for the life of me, I can't find the link again! Fast forward to today, and now my letter N isn't responding. I tried the same suggestions from Apple, to no avail. Any suggestions? I've already tried cleaning the keyboard with compression air.

My MBP 2016 has had various keys not work at different times. For a wile the "6" key stopped working then worked sporadically t-en started working again. Now it is the key between "G" and "J" (you only see it in the note because of autocomplete) t-at stopped almost entirely. Works maybe once in a dozen strokes.

It's been just three months since my repair and I have a genius bar appointment today for the h key repeating. I'm out of warranty now, so we'll see what they say, but I don't intend to pay $800 every three months to fix a $3000 machine. They need to find a permanent fix for this or their reputation is going to be trash.

I am not sure if all the people that have posted about this kind of issue since my last post in April 2017 have the same problem I did or not but just in case they have I wanted to drop a quick note to say the problem I had never returned after I 'exercised' the keyboard back in April 2017...

Interesting! Was the comma the original problematic key? I have had problems with the L, N, and B keys thus far. After going through the steps I posed in one of my previous replies, the L and N have resolved, but the B persists.

Yeah was the comma for me ... been working great since then with no other iffy keys - I have done a lot of coding on that machine since then and would have noticed if any of the others were problematic.

My letter F began working intermittently, sometimes producing two instances of the letter and other times not a single instance when depressed. It is only the letter F.

Is this a mechanical or software issue. The computer is well taken care of all of the time and I am the sole user. MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2016),

I have a 2016 late MBP 15" which i bought in Feb.

I had the same key repeating issue with "n"key.

So i went to a genius bar.

They originally were going to replace my keybaord but ended up replacing many things...

I hope this solves the problem. But frankly i am disappointed with the quality and for the fact that my new macbook had to go the major replacement. :( ...

MBP2017 15" 2.9GHZ RX560 16G ram. High Sierra

I tried that method too and miraculously it worked and havn't had any problem since then

I have LOTS of keyboard and track pad issues on this model. VERY FRUSTRATING that i have to take a day off work to take my macbook pro in to Apple.

I love you.

Thanks, this is extremely useful.

thanks! although I still think this is a hardware issue that apple should implement a permanent fix for.

thanks bro. i just forked your repo. i had(have) problem with b. it just started today. bought nov 16 2017 mbp 2016 256gb. good you came up with code on 14 jan 2018.
