Sounds like the Sony/Toshiba battery issue.

Contract goes to assemble company, but they outsource component manufacturing to the lowest bidder with no quality control.

  Several motherboard manufactures in the last 3-4 years have had capacitor problems, some reached the point of leaking others began to cause problems on the machine after they began to swell. Both Dell and IBM have replaced systems I know of and had the onsite techs check for swollen or leaking capacitors.
