My relatively new MBA with M2 has developed a soft and "sticky" spacebar, meaning that it is reluctant to pop back up. I have used it maybe 25 hours or so total and no, nothing was spilled on it. Anyone else? I hope Apple warranty service is decent. But what a PITA.
Got a tip for us?

Best thing to do is contact Apple and schedule an appointment for service.
To follow up on this... Issue is resolved. I took the MacBook Air M2 to the local Apple store in Bethesda MD last Friday afternoon. The Apple tech said it needed a new keyboard and I let them have it to repair. They shipped it to a service center in Tennessee and I got an email Saturday morning that the repair was complete and it included a UPS tracking number. The repaired MacBook was delivered to me Tuesday afternoon. The included repair note said they replaced the top cover and keyboard. There was nothing wrong with the original cover but maybe those 2 parts are a subassembly? Folks, this is crazy good service and logistics. I honestly don't how they did it that fast.
I had my M1 Pro MBP logic board replaced in 2 days door-to-door, California to Texas and back. Hard to complain about that
