![]() Last April, the company also issued a battery-related recall for some 2016 13-inch MacBook Pros, but that one wasn’t considered a safety issue. In general, the company says the recall doesn’t affect any other MacBooks, so this shouldn’t affect the smaller 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina Display that was also sold between those same years. And Apple says this won’t extend your warranty. That’s quite a while, particularly if you need that machine for work. The bad news: You’ll need to send your MacBook to one of Apple’s repair centers, and the company’s estimating the fix could take one to two weeks. If eligible, the company says it’ll replace your battery for free, meaning your older MacBook Pro may wind up lasting longer than it might have normally - much as older iPhones did when Apple offered $29 battery replacements as an apology for throttling the speed of those phones. A new lease on life for your trusty old MBP?
