Default Idler Pulley

Had a failure of Idler Pulley on 2017 F-Type S at 3800 mi. After hard acceleration merging onto highway/negotiating morning rush hour, I heard metallic/screeching noise coming from engine bay. Alternating messages of: "Electrical System Failure"/"Engine Overheating" displayed. Got off highway, and called for tow. Tech description on repair order said "idler pulley shattered". There is a TSB for idler pulley (SSM73028).
All fixed under warranty so no harm, no foul. Still pretty unusual.
