Attention iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 plus users! Have you ever received a call from someone and when you went to answer the phone you just couldn’t swipe to answer? I don’t mean yours hands weren’t free, I mean when you keep swiping but your phone just was not answering the call. Or have you ever had an alarm on your phone go off but you couldn’t turn it off? Well you are not alone. The iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 plus have started experiencing a mechanical failure which has appropriately been named “Touch Disease”. It is typically first noticed as a gray bar showing up at the top of the screen. “Touch Disease” is when, overtime, the touch screen functionality begins to fail. It starts off very sporadically. This has caused users to think that it was just a small glitch. Ignoring the issue and continuing to use the phone users find that eventually it starts to occur more and more often. The end result is complete touch screen functionality failure, thus leaving iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus users with a useless device.
Most people would then think that the simple fix to this would be taking it into an Apple Store and having the screen fixed. Well, apparently not. Apple is currently facing a several lawsuits. The two more commonly known lawsuits are from Utah and California. Three users from Utah have started a class action lawsuit against Apple. They took the phones in and explained the issue. They were told by Apple that they were not going to fix them and that they were all going to have to purchase new phones. SImilar results have been seen in California as well as other states.
