Macbook Pro touch bar Horizontal black lines

I have a late 2016 Macbook Pro with the touch bar and it has been showing faint grey horizontal lines for months. It started with these being very faint and after warming up for a few minutes they would go away. Now they start and are very dark on the bottom and more faint on top. They fade to faint grey lines after using the notebook for a few minutes, but they never go away. Apple Genius says it a defective screen and its 2 months out of warranty so they won't stand by it. Anybody else having this issue? I feel like Apple just does not give a crap about service anymore!
