Retina Display Replacement Question

My experience with Apple repairs is variable. I always get satisfaction - sometimes on the first visit, sometimes on a subsequent visit. That said, they've always been nice and professional. Take it in and see what happens.

 

Kohlson has an interesting experience with Apple in this regard.
Zackkmac, you have no chance Apple replacing it under the program, they decline to work on machines that have been opened and fixed by external people/companies.....

 

Considering all the tinkering that has already been done with it, my -guess- is that Apple will decline to do the replacement...

 

Is there a display replacement program for the coating issue? Covering also 2015 models?
I had a look at apple.com (https://www.apple.com/support/exchange_repair/), but couldn't find anything.

The display on mine is still good, but there's an area which looks like a fine spray of liquid would be on the screen when looked at an angle. And across the screen there's a "line" where that spray-like look is getting more dense. I assume that could be the anti-reflective coating wearing off?

 

Not true, at least in the case of one of our MBAs. A local repair shop had attempted several repairs to fix the same issue (no sound, no mic). On a whim I took it into Apple and they diagnosed an I/O board replacement, and a relatively modest price to repair (much less than I had paid the local independent). When the repair was complete, they called and the tech asked me if I could share who had done the previous work, as it was a "mess" inside.
They may or may not do warranty work on your system. Can't hurt to ask.

 

Do you have genuine screen or "cheap replacement" ? If genuine I don't see reason to refuse by Apple

yes, the covering 2015 models

 

do not tell them about upgrades, they aren't "geniuses" at all
