Apple Officially Ends iPod Na** Replacement Program, but Still Ho**ring Requests
 

Apple recently ******* its first-generation iPod na** replacement program from its support website, over five years after it started.

MacRumors contacted a few Apple Authorized Service Providers that confirmed the program has indeed ended, and we were advised to contact Apple directly. Apple's support team initially informed us the program is ** longer in place, but a senior AppleCare advisor ho**red the program after we escalated our request.

In other words, if you still have a twelve-year-old iPod na**, you may be in luck still, but it could take some persistence to reach the right person.

The replacement program was launched worldwide in **vember 2011 after Apple determined that, in very rare cases, the battery in the first-generation iPod na** may overheat and pose a safety risk. The manufacturing defect is limited to iPod na** models sold between September 2005 and December 2006.
