My canon A80 had this problem but it didnt show up for several years...
I bought it in 2004... Canon fixed it for no charge and
of course free postage - I Think I showed the list one of the bizzare
photos it produced which is how I found out about it.
Sadly, the camera totally died this past year and I sold it for parts.

My little A60 is soldiering on as long as I can occasionally remember to
put fresh batteries in it.
The Army issued it to me in 2004 just before we went to Iraq. It died
while I was over there. When I asked the S4 about turning it in, they
told me to just toss it. But I hung on to it just in case they changed
their minds.
I saw the recall notice about a year after I got back, so I dug it out
and asked the repair guy at a local camera shop to check to see if Canon
would repair it, which they did - same as yours, no charge.
The Army never did change their mind about wanting it back, so I've
still got it. It stays in the side pocket of my car door so that I'll
always have at least one camera with me in case a 747 happens to land on
the freeway in front of me.
