The seal popped a while ago and the guy from field and tackle repaired it under warranty. it has since popped again twice recently and it makes a clicking noise when off like it's trying to turn on. I feel like the lower unit is probably damaged from water. i figure it's leaked for a while now. It's currently usable but it's giving me 'that feeling'. i guess i could check it out myself.

they basically have a monopoly anyway, i've never seen motor guide for sale anywhere around here and i couldn't even name a 3rd electric motor company haha. I have to get them on the phone and see what my options are hopefully either reimburse me for a repair near me or pay my shipping or something.

another annoying thing is they stopped with the extended 2 year warranty, so i have to pull out my paper work and see exactly how much time i even have left before the one i have is expired!
