HP Victus 16.1 16z-e000

I got this laptop two years ago. It is passed its warranty period. There are other hardware issues on the device which I am not complaining about specifically some scratches on the edge of the laptop, but it is due to a separate issue entirely. I do not know the source of the issue with the hinge. It suddenly one day kept slightly opening every time I closed the laptop. I dismissed it as a manufacturing error as I was able to push it down but today, it can no longer be pushed down. It is stuck in this ajar position. Is there any chance I could get a replacement or repair for this laptop without it being under warranty or do I just have to live with this? In addition to this, there is a growing issue of my screen flickering randomly at times and I am afraid it is due to the hinge bending.  Please advise.
