That mark is the battery starting to fail and it is pushing on the display.
The fix is to open it up and replace the battery. You can open a ticket if you like, but I believe the supply of replacement batteries has dried up for that tablet which is unfortunate for everyone.

So when the battery dies, I throw the Maestro away! Nobody makes a replacement?

You can open a support case and ask if we are still doing the battery replacement.
The battery is for a Dell Venue 8 Pro 5830. If you are handy, you can replace it yourself, but it is a delicate but not impossible operation.
I found this in Canada. https://www.canadalaptopbattery.com/dell-battery/dell-venue-8-pro-5830-tablet-laptop-battery.htm and I have used them before. You may find them in the US.

I just checked, and if you open a support ticket, we can replace the battery still.

Good to know Mike, my Maestro A is fine so far but would be a good idea to order one for when it will be needed. So to confirm, the link you provided is the battery replacement that will go with the Maestro A ?

Amazon has several different vendors
Has good reviews for what that is worth.
