Hi I would say: She expired in September 2011. She expired in 2011. If you talk about a specific day, use 'on'.

Neither of these is correct. There is no correct way to use "get" with "expire." If you have heard people saying this, they were speaking incorrectly. Don't let it make you sick!

Are you (or the people you have heard) using "expired" here to mean "died"?

Yes, (died) they mean. But if we talk about some product(non-living), then would be the sentence in that case? Make me out of this get\got puzzle.

It is the same. Persons and things expire, they don't "get expired". It's the same reason why you don't say "The girl got died" or "The flower got died". It is "The girl died" or "The flower died". The verb to expire works in the same way.
