Has anyone had trouble with their Medela Pump in Style Breast pump's motor wearing out on them?

It's still under warranty and Medela is sending me out a new one. But I was just wondering if anyone else had this problem too.

Answer:
No,i have never had a problem,i have been using mine for 5 months straight,pumping every 3 to 4 hours.I know they are very good but maybe you got some bad luck and got a defective one.Its a good thing they are sending you another.I tried the first years one and i had milk shooting out of the motor!LOL!!
I kind of had a problem with mine. I don't know if it was the motor or not though. I used mine several times a day, and toward the 3rd month of use it started losing suction and sounding funny. Well I looked at the machine to see if I could fix it myself. You know how there is the turn on dial and the speed dial (I think it is a yellow disc shaped cover) That pops off with a bit of force, once I popped it off there was a white disc looking thing under it, mine was not sitting flush again the machine, one side had popped up. So I pushed the white disc thing back down and re closed the cover. It worked just fine after that.
I hope this answer helps, as I am not sure if this is what is wrong with your machine or not. Worst case give it a try if it is still broke call the company.
