My wifes 2020 Macbook Pro (intel) suddenly went dead. No like at all. Have tried DFU etc. 

 

Purchased Nov 2020 for $3K in a sale from JB. 

 

Logic board failure Jan 2022 replaced by Apple. 

 

Dec 2024 seems like could be the same issue again. No liquid damage from spills etc. 

 

 

 

Would 4 years be within reasonable CGA lifespan?  Who would be best to raise this with?  Apple, Ubertec or JB ?

 

 

 

If i go to ubertec it will be pricey  to repair or could take it to a 3rd party repairer for much less.

CGA is raised with the retailer. You may be able to argue the previous repair didn't last long enough to be reasonable.

Agreed. Go back to JB.
