Apple Offers Free Magsafe Replacements

magsafe.jpg

Apple Magsafe power adapters have apparently failed at high enough rates the company is now offering to replace them free of charge, whether your MacBook (13-inch Late 2006), MacBook (13-inch), MacBook Pro (15-inch Glossy) or  MacBook Pro (17-inch) is out-of-warranty or not.

Any Apple-Authorized Service Provider can make the switch for you, or you can take the adapter to the Genius bar at any Apple retail store.

Reservations recommended.

(We read that as all models that use the MagSafe power adapter). Bring in your bad MagSafes to any Apple retailer and they’ll take care of you. [Apple via Cult of Mac] [...]

    I had one that frayed near the powerbrick, I called up Apple and they overnighted me a replacement. (Yes I said overnight.)
