Numerous affected laptops may not have experienced a swollen battery at this time, but Apple explains that it has identified a component that can fail and result in damage to the built-in battery. They announced the marriage to the manufacturer and received a promise for a free replacement battery. Affected units were manufactured between October 2016 and October 2017 and eligibility is determined by the product serial number.

Apple will determine the eligibility for fix through a device's serial number. The company later apologised and lowered the price of battery replacements for affected models to $29 from $79. This issue is not present on older 13-inch MacBook Pro models or the 13-inch MacBook Pros with Touch Bar. To check if your MacBook Pro is eligible for this, you will need to enter in your MacBook Pro's serial number on Apple's support page and hit submit. Well, such replacements are in the rage and so is the Apple. And, you can get the replacement just by visiting any of the authorized service provider or any nearest retail store. After that, it's a matter of 3 to 5 days for service to take place.

Apple, however, will not extend the standard warranty coverage of the devices. Also, any customers that have already paid for a replacement battery for their affected laptop can contact Apple Support about a refund.
