Last week I just got my macbook pro back from the apple store. I took it to the apple store because it's shutdowning by itself. and because it shutdowns the fan becomes very noisy and then buff shutdown.. it happens to me several times. but it's very random... sometimes 2x a month... but sometimes not at all in a month.

After I brought it to the apple store, they sent it to the depot. And after a week, they called me, and they told me that they replaced the fan. but after 2 weeks later, it happens again... I'm afraid they don't see the problem, and they just replace the fans. So what should i do right now? i'm stressed out...
 
Take it back again. It sounds like it may be shutting down from overheating, which is a major problem that you don't want to wait on.

Its sounds like a firmware or temperature sensor issue. I agree that you should take it back again
