Hello, I have the Acer AL1706A monitor and there is a vertical red line going down the center of the screen. Is there a fix for this or is the monitor going bad? Thank you.

Sorry, no way to fix this. It's a defect in the monitor. You can choose to live with it or replace the monitor. If you're brave you might find a replacement LCD on eBay and swap it out yourself, otherwise you're just looking at a new monitor.
