Apple Recalls 15-Inch MacBook Pro Batteries

Apple has initiated a worldwide battery exchange program for certain batteries that were sold for use with 15-inch MacBook Pro laptops from February 2006 through May 2006.

“We recently discovered that some 15-inch MacBook Pro batteries supplied to Apple do not meet our high standards for battery performance. To give our users the best experience possible, we will replace these batteries for customers free of charge”, Apple published.

The affected MacBook Pro batteries have model number A1175 and a 12-digit serial number that ends with U7SA, U7SB or U7SC.

Apple noted that the affected batteries do not pose a safety risk, and can be used until a replacement arrives.
