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.
