I bought the Macbook Pro retina back over the summer and was a little upset when a small dead pixel cluster appeared on the display after about a month of use.
I brought it back to the apple store (i did not purchase applecare). I was told that this was happening in about 1 our of every 40 MBP retinas and they happily replaced the display in less than 24 hours.
I'm not implying that my situation is "unique/new/ particularly note-worthy" but it is just as antidotal as yours and ended with a positive outcome.

- xmpir 14y agoour designer had the same problem: after 2 weeks of usage some dead pixels appeared right in the middle of the retina display. unfortunatly in austria we don't have a apple store - just resellers. he was told that he should try to send it back but that there is a tolerance of pixels that are allowed to be dead, so actually those few dead pixels are tolerable. he decided to send it back anyway, i wonder what will happen...
