Sensor gone bad? or my new Lens?

Does look like a sensor fault but I thought its only CCDs that cause the line with a stuck pixel? not cmos. Why Leica haven't included built in sensor remap in there cameras I don't know, I have a few stuck pixels on my M9 no lines if I want it fixed has to go all the way to Germay while my Canon 1dxs work cameras can do a sensor remap in about 2 minutes!

CMOS sensors are exactly as prone to pixel damage, including lines, as CCD sensors are. There may be a difference in visibility caused by the strength of an AA filter or the on-sensor processing but that is all.

For a stuck pixel it's curious that it fades out at each end of the line. I'd like to see an image where the middle of the line crosses a bright light source to see if it flares. I would also set the camera to an 8 second exposure with the lens cap on and shine a bright light all around the camera.
