What can Best Buy do to fix my camera?

I have a Nikon S8100 camera that I bought about ten months ago. I have been on vacation this last week and have been using it a lot. This morning it stopped working (wouldn't take a picture). From research on the internet, I believe it is a malfunctioning shutter mechanism. I purchased it at Best Buy and am wondering if I should take in there to see what they can do about it or if I should just take it to a repair shop to get it fixed. Or should I just buy a new camera?
I don't have any extra warranty--just the factory warranty which would still be good. But the factory warranty only covers defects and I don't think it would cover my problem.

My camera once stopped working and we took it to best buy, we had a warranty, and what they did was that they were able to let us buy a new camera and pay the difference of the old camera and the new camera

Contact Nikon, not Best Buy.
Nikon produced the camera and the warranty is from them. Contact them - 1-800-Nikon US (1-800-645-6687)

Go into bestbuy and see what they can do. Some manufactures use bestbuy for warranty services. They helped me with my laptop even though i only had a manufactures warranty and they fixed it.
- I want to buy a Nikon D90. Do I buy from Best Buy or Crutchfield?
- Is Best Buy a safe place to buy a refurbished camera?
- Is this a major camera problem or can i fix it myself?
- Will Nikon send me a replacement camera if I can't fix the autofocus function?
- Can I still return my Nikon Camera to a Best Buy if I no longer have the box?
