    Yes, you need to call for a warranty service call. The relay on the compressor is not a very good one. Get it replaced before your year warranty is over. The failure was probably accelerated by the door being left ajar, but it likely would have happened anyway. I replace them almost on a daily basis, on both Maytag and Whirlpool branded refrigerators. To be safe, just don't say anything about the door issue. By shutting it off and letting it defrost, you solved the airflow issue correctly. When you make the appointment, just tell them about the compressor clicking on and off randomly, and they should figure it out. Good luck.
