Chosen Solution
I have a early 2013 15’“ macbook pro and the logic board failed around 3 months ago and I had it fixed from an apple verified dealer (because thats all I have near me) and now exactly 95 days after the fix it has failed yet again and apple is saying they can’t do anything because its past the warranty and because its consider a “vintage” computer now (which it wasn’t when I originally had it fixed). Does anyone know if theres anything I can do? I payed way to much to have it fixed in the first place and it barely made it 3 months. Thanks for any advice.
Regrettably if warranty terms were respected there’s not much you can do from a legal point of view, besides contacting the dealer and appeal to their good will. I’d feel miserable if my repair on a Mac would fail 95 days after working on it and try to find an acceptable solution for both parts. However, if you are denied an acceptable arrangement for you, the only reasonable advice I would give is to try and find an indipendent reputable lab into component level repairs, some work on a no fix no fee basis and may be able to repair your Mac for a fraction of the cost of a board replacement.
