Laptop case open and smells like burned?

Hi. About a month ago I noticed that my "case" from my laptop on top of the left side is completely open when you open and close it again and you can see the complete cable. The corner then suddenly turned yellow when I raised the laptop. In any case, I did not send him for repair, because I just used it for the school and I thought that as long as the laptop otherwise runs perfectly, I can leave it until the Christmas break and then just send it in for repair. It has also happened again and again that a little smoke has come from the laptop and it has smelled logically burned, because, I believe, at least, the cable in the laptop are always burned down. Now, the actually already foreseen "accident" happened today, closed my laptop, he stunk again for smoke and when reopening it was time. The keyboard is no longer connected to the "upper" part, means I can no longer log in and otherwise, except to turn it on and off, nothing more to do with the. Have him then sent for repair and wanted to ask, what could have been reasons, that the case has just opened by itself in the corner and whether you ever had something or maybe in your profession have seen such a "case" and How much does it cost me to have it repaired? War in three days, a cost proposal, but it does not hurt now already to know what price comes to me.

Ps: please save yourself comments, such as: you should have sent him in immediately, etc. I know that, but in retrospect, you know, you are always smarter.

Since you do not know exactly what is broken, it can be damn expensive. Scorch caused by short circuits, which can destroy the entire system.

only if it is an apple macbook, which costs new in the 4-digit range, would be worth it, with working prices of 80 euro per hour plus parts.

even if you do not want to hear that, you probably have to book a new laptop in the rubric 'pay'. Anyone who ignores such alarm signals (smokes and smells burnt) must learn.
