Google has announced a new repair and warranty initiative for its Pixel 9 Pro series. The program addresses display issues affecting certain devices, while Pixel 9 Pro Fold owners receive an extended 3-year warranty to safeguard against functional problems.

Google revealed that the Pixel 9 Pro and Pixel 9 Pro XL are eligible for an Extended Repair Program covering display issues such as:

Vertical lines running from the top to the bottom of the screen
Display flickering

The company noted that only a limited number of devices may experience these issues, which can impact device functionality. Eligible devices can be repaired free of charge for up to 3 years from the original retail purchase date.

Eligibility requirements:

Devices must exhibit a vertical line from bottom to top or screen flicker
Devices with cracked displays or liquid damage may not qualify

Owners can check their device eligibility on Google’s official website.

Pixel 9 Pro fold extended warranty

In addition to the repair program, Google announced an Extended Warranty Program for the Pixel 9 Pro Fold. The program provides 3 years of coverage for devices that experience functionality issues, which appear to be related to the display.

Google states that affected Pixel 9 Pro Fold devices may be eligible for a replacement at no charge. However, the company has not clearly specified the exact display issue that triggers eligibility.

Important notes:

Cracked displays, cover glass damage, and liquid intrusion may disqualify a device
Devices previously repaired for certain screen issues may still qualify, depending on circumstances

Fold owners can also verify eligibility through Google’s website.
