I'm in the same boat.
Initially, I was skeptical of all the reports about how frequently the issue was happening, and I was starting to believe that it was just hysterics by the anti-Apple crowd. But it was eventually just a matter of time.
First my personal laptop had issues, and I was thankfully able to take advantage of the free keyboard replacement. Then my work laptop began experiencing the same issue, and it's gotten so bad that I had to connect an external keyboard in order to be able to login because I have no way to see which characters are getting screwed up as I type my password.
I keep meaning to take it to the Apple store, but the latest estimates are 5 to 7 days to replace the keyboard and I haven't yet had the opportunity to be without my work machine for that long.

- gorbypark 6y agoI just did an online chat with Apple to get my keyboard replaced due to similar issues. It’s out of warranty but they said they’ll do it for free for up to four years after the date of retail sale...I happened to be exactly, to the day, four years from when I bought it! Make sure you get it done before then!
