It is out of warranty because you didn't purchase warranty extension beyond the 1 year.
You can sit on your hands and have a non-working laptop if you don't want to replace the hard drive.

Hard drives fail -- for any of a host of reasons -- some electrical, some mechanical. This one is failing an internal self-test that the manufacturer deemed a critical failure. There is nothing you can do short of replacing the drive.
