I have a Surface 4 Pro that I purchased in March 2016. Over the last few days, I was seeing a considerable color bleed on lower left edge of the screen. Then I stared noticing that that type cover does not seem to close flat against the screen. On closer inspection, I found that the screen is bulging (curving out) on the lower left side and the screen edge has separated from the frame, exposing a gap, Some of the circuitry inside seems to be pushing out as well from what I can see through the gap, indicating something inside is exerting an outward pressure. I pushed the screen back in and with a little pressure it got flattened. However, after a few minutes use, the screen bulged out again. There is no physical damage to the screen, the bezel or the device in general, no cracks or scratches.
What is causing this and what is a possible solution?
Thanks,
Deepak
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
JUst called Microsoft, Apparently they extended the warranty to 3 yrs for this issue.
My bad luck I am over by 2 months so the only solution they can offer is to throw the device. I was a bit aghast with this solution. So its a bit sad to throw a perfectly functioning device due to this manufacturing defect in the battery.
will aim to buy another brand after I throw it

Can you take a screen shot of this email and upload it in a reply?
An interesting situation that I am still following up.
I paid 481 EUR in an agreement with Microsoft (written in email) to get a Surface Pro 5, and they sent me a Surface Pro 4 instead. I complaint and a supporter and she said that she raised my case twice and there is nothing more they can do about it. Now does that sound like a scam :)
I am raising my case again to another technician and waiting for the response.
What looks so black and white apparently sounds really complicated at Microsoft.
It's like you paid for an iPhone and they sent you a Samsung (no offense) and you're supposed to be grateful for that.
Microsoft is a company in decline and takes no responsibility for their products. They will take your money and if you and I are unlucky to be stuck with their product its our problem.
It seems some of their employees in storefronts act well by providing a swap for a dangerous product. However the official line is that they don't want to know.
Proof of that is their response to these concerns being ZERO.

when exactly did you buy your SP4 and when did you go to a Microsoft Store and which one?
