Macbook backlight, dark screen,

I have Macbook pro 2016, when I open the screen, the screen goes after certain angle. Apple has recall for this issue for this specific model, Apple should fix it for free as this is product defect, but apple refused to fix it, the reason the apple support telling me is my computer bought as is. So wired. It is the production defect and I think apple should fix it.

Any advice?

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.0

Flexgate MacBook Pro 2016- backlight display programme I spoke to an advisor on chat who said that my laptop was showing signs of the flexgate/backlight display issue for this model. They advised me to take it to Apple for a free repair under the repair programme. I went to the store who refused to repair it because it was more than 3 years since the programme launched. I then spoke to multiple support staff online (kept being disconnected and then not called back, even when they said they would) until one eventually advised me that I could ask for a repair under Consumer Law and should go back to the shop to ask for this instead. I ended up spending around 4 hours in the store and by the time I was given this advice the store was closed. Has anyone else had this experience and have they been able to have their laptop repaired through this route? The laptop had a design flaw when I bought it so shouldn't apple have to repair it?

13" MacBook Pro Backlight Problem Have recently noticed the backlight down the bottom is missing parts and have what seems to be dark spots along the bottom Have searched support and see there's a recall for the 2016 model for the same thing? Why isn't the 2017 included if it has the exact same issue? Solutions please?
