( Earlier info and reader's repair reports follow, from before the repair program ended) (If it were up to me, any MBP with one of these GPUs would have gotten a motherboard replacement.) Not sure if Apple Customer Relations would be of any help, but the article has a Contact Apple link with phone numbers by country.

I wish I had better advice other than what is already posted below here over the years. There was also a separate (not computer brand specific) class action (noted below back then) but that was settled in 2010.I have gotten mails on MBP/8600M failures since the program was ended on refused repairs that may be due to end of program but some appeared to be for the same reasons noted below at times - claimed logic board failure (not GPU)/inability to run the USB drive GPU qualifying test, etc. I take that sentence to mean few would have a purchase date that is still less than 4 years ago.

Recent Updates | Mac Upgrades/Repairs | Storage | Video | Audio/HT | Apps/OS/Network | Home If you are one of these employees, you should be absolutely ashamed of yourself.MacBook Pro (Nvidia 8600M) GPU/Video Failures and Apple Repair Reports If you're looking for an easy lawsuit, go here on a rainy day. I get that this is a big company and can not be bothered with people, but the employees at this store have their heads so far up their asses it's absurd, disturbing, and gross. I opened to door and asked the guard what he was laughing at and he shrunk right down. I looked back and an employee and the security guard looking at us laughing.

I took my kid out and put her in our car right outside. Besides the slick floor and zero effort to make it not so, the lack of humanity with those employees was disgusting. I asked to speak to the manager, she came over and laid the whole thing out. I had to literally yell at one before they even responded. I was there on the floor holding my screaming child and not one employee, even standing directly next to us, moved or asked if she was ok. What pissed me off is the fact that we were surrounded by employees and none of them even glanced in our direction. All this isn't the thing that pissed me off.

The floor is incredibly slippery and there was nothing to stop anyone from slipping. There was a rug in the very front but nothing anywhere else. My 4 year old slipped on the incredibly slick floor. I went in here to pick up some AirPods as a gift.
