{begin totally unrelated story} When I was in an electronic repair class, this idiot put capacitors in each socket on a long AC power strip, then plugged it into the wall. It was a very interesting experience -- about had a heart attack -- because I wasn't expecting it. {/end story}

Back to your topic:

They must have been buying cheap ass caps to cut costs, who knows. good luck though. I'd just replace it and then try to bitch your way into a refund or replacement.
