Do you have the new, or the old wall adaptor? You should have been issued with a new one, which fixes that problem.
Well if it's fried than I'd suggest putting salt on it and having yourself an iFry.
Take it to the Genius Bar and have it replaced.

Yes, have an iFry and at the Genius Bar have an apple martini.

Apple will charge you the Out-of-Warranty Service Fee if Apple receives your original and determines that is not eligible for service under the warranty or the AppleCare Protection Plan, but is repairable.

You are misinformed. The old wall chargers were recalled because the prongs had a tendency to break off in the outlet causing a dangerous electrocution hazard while users tried to fish them out of the holes without first turning off the power.
The wall charger problem has nothing to do with his problem.
