Traxxas Slash Issue?

Okay lets talk RC cars. So for christmas i got a traxxas slash 4x4 1/10 scale with a brushless motor. This morning i was driving it, and all of a sudden it stopped. I just started getting into rc, so im not sure what is wrong. It turn on, the wheels turn, and the motor even runs, but it makes a nasty sound and the wheels dont turn. Whats wrong and how should i fix it?

    Plastic drive gear wither on the motor shaft or axle has shifted or stripped out. If shifted, there's a chance you can repair it with a dab of Super Glue IF you can gain access without breaking other parts. If tthe gear is stripped, however, you're just out of luck because you'll NEVER find another one. As user Bouyant points out above, these toys are made to sell, not play with.
