MacBook Pro 15" (2018) Keyboard "t" key repeating issue?

For a while now, I've been using one of those protective rubber sheets over my keyboard and bizarrely it has helped alleviate the issue somewhat. The typing experience isn't fantastic but I end up deleting my last word less. So a net plus. As a bonus crap can't get into the keyboard.

I'm having this problem too! It happens to me with the "r" key as well as the "t". Those may just be the ones I notice most and they are very common letters. I really would like this solved. This computer is pretty new for me, and way too expensive to be having such a silly issue.

I too . have argh there it goes, I get full stops between sentences sometimes, the space but doubles up sometimes, and it's the same with the e key and sometimes the p and t key.

I'm . getting haha there it goes again, I'm getting my mac swapped over tomorrow and HOPING the new one is fixed, but I likely wouldn't be surprised if the new one has it as well.

I'll keep you posted, I mean. You'd think by now they would have recalled the device's or pin pointed what / why it's with some models and not all of them. They really should have done a recall seems a LOT of people are having this issue.

"They really should have done a recall seems a LOT of people are having this issue. "

Absolutely ridiculous! No reason to do a recall just because something SEEMS to be affecting a LOT of people as you say. How about this? I have a 2018 MBP and I have zero issues with my keyboard. Just because you're having an issue and read up on forums seeing a group of people complaining doesn't warrant a recall and it certainly doesn't validate your claim that a LOT of people are having issues. I hope you realize that there are a great deal of people who don't even own the MacBook Pro and will exacerbate issues a few others are having simply to tarnish Apple's reputation? It does happen you know? I'm kinda tired of seeing posts like yours. It's usually a one-liner. As soon as one of the more prominent members questions the complainer's concerns these types of posters never return or respond. It ends up being just a one-liner which makes me feel suspect about apparent agendas here.

I guess? It's only been 2 days since the service program was posted. I didn't see it mentioned in this thread, and the only reason I found out about it is because I decided to do another search on it aftter I got so annoyed while writing a paper.

Having the same issue. Nothing described as possible solution helped me. Didn't try the apple care yet since I'm using the macbook at work and don't have free time in order to leave it for a few days...

It's so annoying bug. Apply why should I pay such money for the buggy keyboard!?

Same problem. Getting ready to take it back in for the 3rd upper body replacement. Has been the 'r' key twice and now the 'o' key. Love everything about the thing except this. This is getting VERY annoying, and could prompt me to deal with a PC laptop again. This doesn't 'just work' ....

The worst service I've ever had.

I bought the macbook in 2018 and still didn't find a way to fix the keyboard issue. I use the machine at work everyday and cannot effort more money to buy a new one.. And the issue is so annoying..

Ideally you should just replace the bad product with a new one for every customer. I think if Apple cares of customers it must be done.

This is not what Apple does. Apple replaces the keyboards. The problem is that they replace faulty keyboards for another faulty keyboards. I am a programmer and my keyboard needs to work without any problem (just like any other keyboard in the world). We will see if I still have issues after my second replacement.

Forgive me if this is not quite what yuo're looking for but I've managed to mitigate the issue by using a keyboard cover. One of those cheap rubbery sheets you can get on Ebay for your MBP. By chance I stumbled on this as it came with my protective case and thought I'd give it a try. Lo' and behold my double strokes have all but disappeared. But the typing experience is impacted of course. It takes some getting used to. I guess maybe I'm now striking the key differently.

I am on keyboard 3 and since the first time happened within the 14 days, this is my second 15" MPB. This has been unacceptable. The downtime is killer--I have old machines I can rig up, but my work's not on it, and it's a pain.

I got this exact same issue with the "s", "t" and "o" keys :-( Sometimes the keys don't register, and at other times they randomly repeat. How did you end up solving it?

Same issue but with the e key. seems they are all in the same area on the keyboard: "e r t"

2018 13" here. (august ish, the one with quad core i5, so definitely the "after keyboard fix" model)

Hey all. Success on this issue!
