A top case replacement is usually pretty quick. And it will come back with a shiny new keyboard, trackpad, Al topcase (where your hands rest), and battery.
so 2015 product gets recall 4 years later? How does that work?

There seems to be a recall program for every Apple product made in the recent years...
Not sure if good support or bad quality manufacturing.
I was going to have a small heart attack when I thought my MBP was affected... There is no Apple store around me, I am not willing to part with my MBP for 2 weeks+, I don't trust handing my MBP with all my data on it to some stranger tech. expert, and I don't want to buy a new flimsy touchbar butterfly keyboard mac let alone can't afford it.
When they replace the battery, they generally replace the entire top case, since the battery is glued in. New keyboard, new trackpad... very cool.
oh wow, thats crazyMy 2007 car got a recall this year, it took almost 10 years to work out the windows fall off the things.
Still the pinnacle of Apple's laptop design. I almost wish my late-2013 was affected haha I could use a new battery...
That's fair. I'd say the Retina models are probably the best balance of new and old. That said, I might've even been happier if they had kept the same chassis as the 2011 and just added a Retina Display and newer internals. I want my Ethernet port.I disagree, but that's okay.
I think the 2011/2012 machines are arguably superior, in particular the 17", because it had the best combo of power, upgradeability, and expandability (the Expresscard slot is great). The 2012 15" lost the expresscard slot but added USB 3, though.
Once the Retinas came out Apple started soldering (well, it was the Air, but still)....
