This probably has been discussed before, the warranty of my wife mbp 13 retina has just expired and I just found out that some parts of her screen has some coating damage. I have no idea why she didn't tell me, she said it was okay for her. Anyway, checking the internet, it seems to be a common problem on some batches. Has anybody with the same problem with expired warranty successfully ask for it to be fixes foc?

Here is how it looks, for me it is pretty bad, for he it is okay smile.gif

You can replace it for free as long as it is within 3 years of its purchase date.

The real question is - how long can your wife live without the Macbook?

I went to Machines MV and waited 3.5 weeks to get mine back. 10 working days for the initial diagnosis (wtf?!) and about 7 working days for parts arrival and repair.

AASP's in Malaysia suck. They have some ways to go to match the turnaround times of the west.

Ouch, 3.5 weeks? I'll try VR Tech then, they've been very prompt with their service before. A week turnaround when I had problem with my previous MBP. Will it speed up the process if I call up Apple first and get my incident number?

Please do not used wet tissue for wipe it over.
Those alcohol can be easily damage the screen external coating.
Use plain water with micro fiber cloths clean the screen should not an issue.

Those who got the damaged is due to the fact that they are not just using plain water and cloth but with others.

So if urs is not damaged may not mean it is different in screen just u did not try it.
