Sad to hear that... well, it might just be the first case of a failed DC motor. Guess the best way is to send it back to have it fixed. As far as I remember from reading online though, is that the DC motor is, as the engineers call it, a "simple brushless DC motor" or something like that, which I hope indicates quick repair.
