The company said it will provide repair manuals and genuine Apple parts and tools through the Apple Self Service Repair Store, starting in the US. Self Service Repair for iPhone launched earlier this year, and the program will now expand to other countries — starting with Europe — as well as additional Mac models later this year, Apple said in a statement late Monday.
“Self Service Repair for MacBook Air and MacBook Pro offers more than a dozen different repair types for each model, including display, top battery compartment and trackpad, with more to come,” the iPhone maker said.
Customers experienced in the intricacies of electronic device repair will be able to complete repairs on these Mac laptops with access to many of the same parts and tools available at Apple Store locations and Apple Authorized Service Providers.
Customers can send the replaced parts back to Apple for refurbishing and recycling, and in many cases receive credit for their purchase that way, Apple said.
“For the vast majority of customers who have no experience in repairing electronic devices, visiting a professional repair provider with certified technicians using genuine Apple parts is the safest and most reliable way to repair,” the company added.
A worldwide network of more than 5,000 Apple Authorized Service Providers supports more than 100,000 active technicians.
