Apple to replace some MacBook Pro batteries
Apple Computers has launched a new worldwide product exchange programme. This is for replacing batteries on some of their recently launched MacBook Pro laptops.
The company says that some of these products were shipped with substandard batteries and they need replacement.
These batteries were supplied with the 15-inch MacBook Pro laptops.
Apple mentioned in a statement on their website that it had recently discovered that some 15-inch MacBook Pro batteries supplied to Apple did not meet its performance standards.
These would now be replaced free of charge. The company added that the affected models were sold between February and May 2006. The laptops would have the model number A1175 and a 12-digit serial number that ends with U7SA, U7SB or U7SC.
Apple also clarified that these batteries are not technically a safety risk and the users are safe to use these batteries until the new ones are supplied.
