Oh there have been plenty of shattered rotors on brushless motors.

This is the first Castle/Neu motor with it's superior kevlar wrapping that we have seen 'sploded.

We've seen a few come back with shattered rotors, but it's very rare.

If you can't get a good resolution from Tech Support (I imagine they will just send you a rebuild kit...) let me know here.
