Where do you stand if you have an Early 2011 15" MacBook Pro that has a faulty GPU but is long out of warranty?

Even with this extension program, you aren't any better off since you would still have to pay for the repair according to Apple's website?

I guess this is where your statutory rights come into play if you live in the UK (like I am) since these entitle you to the free repair or replacement of the defective goods up to six years after purchase.

The second paragraph says "Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider will repair affected MacBook Pro systems, free of charge."


Thanks! I misread the text at the bottom of the page (due to tiredness). You're right though, the repair would be free of charge.

"This worldwide Apple program does not extend the standard warranty coverage of the MacBook Pro."
