Can you RMA?
If not, I think you're SOL

The dead pixel warranty applies when your TFT-LCD/LED/PDP & Monitors contains more than 7 dead pixels within the standard warranty period

It's also not really repairable, that I know of - you just have to deal with it 🙁

Assuming there isn't any glass on the panel and it's not a touchscreen, I've fixed stuck subpixels using pressure. With it turned on, I used a command prompt window to expose the pixel and rolled a qtip (or cottonswab if you're a redcoat) over it with increasing pressure. You can use as much pressure as you feel is needed as long as you dont crack the thing. There is a slight chance you may encourage more stuck subpixels but every time I did this it did not occur and the subpixels never stuck again. Good luck.
