All active Apple Service Programs are described on this page: Apple Service Programs - Apple Support.


It could be a hardware problem as you suspect, but make sure that you did not inadvertently alter some settings in Accessibility Preferences: Change Accessibility settings on Mac - Apple Support. For example, Display settings for accessibility can enable all sorts of groovy colors.


If you are certain it's a hardware problem then contact Apple to get your Mac evaluated: Contact - Official Apple Support
