My MacBook Pro screen is black

I was using my MacBook Pro 2017 15" A1707, I gently closed it and when I opened it back up 10 minutes later, the screen stayed black. I thought my MacBook was dead but I could still hear sound so I kept trying to close it and open it back up but nothing. Maybe after a hour, I tried to open it but slowly and my screen was perfectly working, until I open it maybe at 90 degrees. From now on, I know my MacBook is perfectly working but the screen won't work until after I reach around 90 degrees at the opening. What can I do? I don't have Apple Care anymore on it.

Lot of users are facing this issue due to the flex cable of display wearing off due to lid opening and closing.

Request you to follow, reply, support and ask for a repair program for the same like 2016 models which is live now, as all the 2017 models too have the same issue like the 2016 models.
