If the motor got that hot, then the magnets inside it probably lost their strength. When this happens, the motor basically becomes a short circuit. The MM got hot because it was sending power into this short circuit. I don't know if CC will cover damage due to over-heating. Try running another similar motor in the vehicle (if you have another motor...) and see if the MM still operates correctly. If it does, then I would just bite the bullet and pick up a new motor.
