MBP 2018 15in with swollen battery

[wowotoe]

I got it directly from Apple last November. Less than a year old and the battery is already swollen Only 27 cycles on the battery. I've scheduled next week for battery replacement. Does anyone know how long it usually takes to get the MBP back for battery replacement?

I just had my MBP's battery replaced last week in Apple Store. They quoted me 3 ~ 5 days to replace a battery. I told them that's unbelievably long to replace a battery but they said they had many work orders and my MBP was not the only thing they were repairing, blah, blah, blah... Long story short, I turned my MBP in at ~ 11:00 AM, and I got a message that my MBP was ready to be picked up at ~ 2:30 PM... So, I was happy...

My 2015 MBP was part of the battery recall. I took it to the Apple store and they quoted 2 weeks because it had to be done at a service center and shipped ground. It actually took 1 week. I considered buying a new MBP then returning it when mine came back, but I ended up just using my wife's MBP.
