Three months ago i had my macbook sent out for repair through Apple's new tiered repair program. It wouldn't turn on after the fan died. They replaced the logicboard and a bunch of other things.

Now 3 months later i have the "Not Charging" symbol up where the battery is. I tried a new charger, a new battery, then took it to Apple. The guy at the store said it was the MagSafe board, and replaced that. I called to check on the repair, and they said that it didn't fix the problem. They then said it was the logicboard. I told them it had just been replaced, so they put me on hold for a while. They came back and told me that the stress crack on the side of the computer where the battery terminals are to charge the battery would not allow it to charge. Well after taking it from there and thinking about it. There is about 30% battery left on the computer.. How would the computer even be on with out a charger if the terminals did not have contact? So i think their "diagnosis" of what is wrong with the computer is crap, and i'm thinking its the logicboard again. What do you think?
