Colored areas can be due to stresses. Are there any dents in the case that
might apply stress?

You might try disassembling the case, loosening the screws mounting the LCD
to allow any stresses to 'relax'. While you have it loose, check and make
sure nothing came loose behind the screen and is pressing on the screen
from the back.

Did it perhaps get very hot? Perhaps left in a sun-warmed-van? Perhaps face
down, resting on something, with the something pressing on the screen???

Before you throw it away, you might try warming it up (evenly!) to temps
that it might have experienced in the van.

Let it 'cook' for a while and then let it slowly cool down. Try not to
apply any uneven stresses to the screen (lay it down so that the screen is
'up', flat and level)while it is hot or cooling.

Perhaps support it on some soft pillows while you let it heat and cool.

Good luck.
