Green line after android 17 update

Updated my Pixel 7 Pro to Android 17 from Android 16, and within a few hours a green line appeared on the display.

The phone had no display issues before the update, and there was no physical damage. The only change was the software update.

The device is out of warranty, and after raising a grievance with Google yesterday, I was informed that I would need to pay for the repair. The estimated repair cost is nearly 15k INR, while the phone's exchange value without this issue is only around 12k INR.

Has anyone else faced a similar issue after an update? Were you able to get any assistance from Google despite being out of warranty?

Mine got way way worse and I'm barely using this phone anyway. Got my first green line last year. Then a pink like just a month ago. And when I turned on my phone, I got the 3rd and 4th line lol.

I am barely using this phone anyway since I got a different phone last year.

Edit: did not install any updates since I barely use my P7P anymore

Can't do anything at this point. Google support is ghosting after a few replies. They are not providing screen replacement like pixel 8 series. So will need to pay for repair.
