Middle of the screen is grey... no cracks but I think it was ran over

I found the iPad under my SUV ground is soft - no cracks, not bent, few on the front screen and it was left outside from 530-1130 so it was either over heated bc it's hot here in Georgia or it was ran over and just didnt crack or bend.... only the middle of the screen is greyed out with a few vertical lines through it that are not grey - fully functional you can even push buttons through the grey screen if you know where to push bc obviously you cant see through it... I've tried pressing home and power button but nothing changed after reset- should I take it apart yo see if anything was disconnected or could it be heat related

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

'''++summerladner++'''  either or, it does sound like a bad LCD. You’ll have to take it apart and most likely replace the LCD. Use this guide iPad 4 Wi-Fi LCD Replacement for that. Whenever I repair the LCD I always replace the digitizer as well, since I seem to crack it anyway. So, just in case, here is the guide for that iPad 4 Wi-Fi Front Panel Replacement. Parts for the repair are available right here iPad 3/4 LCD iPad 3/4 Adhesive Strips and iPad 4 Screen Digitizer Assembly
