Apple has launched a repair program (http://www.apple.com/support/macbookpro-videoissues/) to fix MacBook Pro machines sold between February 2011 and February 2013 that have problems with distorted video, ** video, or unexpected system restarts.
As of February 20 in the United States and Canada (February 27 in other countries), users with affected machines will be able to visit an Apple Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider to receive repairs for their MacBook Pros at ** charge. Customers will be able to bring their MacBook Pro to an Apple Store or service provider or send it in via mail for repairs.
http://cdn.macrumors.com/article-new/2015/02/macbook_pro_video_repair.jpgAn affected MacBook Pro may display one or more of the following symptoms:
-Distorted or scrambled video on the computer screen
-** video on the computer screen (or external display) even though the computer is on
-Computer restarts unexpectedlyAffected products include 15 and 17-inch MacBook Pro models manufactured in 2011 and 15-inch Retina MacBook Pro models manufactured between Mid 2012 and Early 2013. Users can see whether their computers are affected by using the "Check Your Coverage (https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do)" tool on Apple's site.
Apple is contacting customers who already paid to have their machines repaired either through Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider to arrange a reimbursement. The company asks customers who paid for a repair for the issue and did **t receive an email to contact Apple.
Apple will provide repairs until February 27, 2016, or three years from the MacBook's original date of sale, depending on which coverage period is longer.
Some early and late-2011 MacBook Pro owners with discrete graphics cards have been experiencing GPU failures and crashes for years **w, causing screen glitches and image distortion, among other problems.
MacBook owners petitioned Apple (https://www.change.org/p/timothy-d-cook-replace-or-fix-all-early-2011-macbook-pro-with-graphics-failure) to begin a repair program for the machines on change.org and even went as far as filing a class action lawsuit (http://www.macrumors.com/2014/10/28/macbook-pro-2011-graphics-lawsuit/) after an extended period of time without a repair program.

The lawsuit asked that Apple ack**wledge that an issue exists and repair affected machines, which the company appears to be prepared to do with the launch of today?s repair program covering both repairs and reimbursements for repairs already made. It is unclear how the new program will affect the class-action lawsuit brought against Apple by 2011 MacBook Pro owners.
