MacBook Pro Special Report: Display slightly bent, not latching properly -- solutions
We previously reported on an issue affecting PowerBooks, where apparent heat warping, undue force or manufacturing defects resulted in warping of the screen housing, causing a situation where the lid does not completely close, failing to latch.
It now appears that a similar problem is affecting a limited number of MacBook Pros, causing similar latching (lack thereof) issues, or manifesting as slight upward curls at the edge of the screen when the unit is closed.
Some users experiencing this problem have had success getting afflicted units replaced by Apple while others haven't.
A number of readers have found success with the use of "Wildeepz" from Radtech -- transparent urethane display cushions for notebooks.
In some severe cases, notebook screen warping can result in a vertical bar and other screen defects.
