Macbook Pro Battery Expended....Pic Included!!

[Dextor143]

Guys,
I was having issue with my trackpad and I thought I have to open up my macbook pro to fix it as it was just getting too sensitive....Just a little touch was making click....

Anyhow I was sitting today and then put the laptop on my lap and all of sudden I felt something in the battery....And this is what I found!

I have a Macbook Pro 2.33 GHz Later 2007 model

Not exactly exploded... but expanded

Yes, mine did the same thing
Apple replaced my battery for free, and that fixed my trackpad issues as well

Unfortunately, not an uncommon occurrence

What a funny typo, I'm picturing a bowl of lumpy batter being handed to Apple with puppy-dog eyes

Did you have warranty?

Thanks for that!
Corrected

Did you have warranty?

They should replace it out of warranty due to the known issue
But you will need to check to be sure

Apple had a repair extension program for this, but it has long since expired. Therefore, you'd likely only be covered if you have AppleCare (or if the battery itself is less than a year old).

It will probably be at the discretion of the local store
