I picked up my truck from a local transmission shop and they told me my blower motor suddenly stopped working. When I turned it on it would just vibrate the dash like crazy. When I pulled it to see what happened this is what it looked like.
I didn't see any debris at all when I pulled it out. Has anyone seen this happen before?
Yup one part gets a little weak and it eats its self- how ever if there is no parts and pieces in housing my bets is somebody at the shop swapped out the dead one for your good one .....
If you still have the blower motor out, I suggest you really try to get down into the evaporator housing to clean it out. That's probably where all the pieces went.
I pulled mine out b/c it was making noise, and found that there was dirt/leaves/etc filling up over 50% of the evap housing. After getting all that out my HVAC blows like 2-3 times harder.
Just be very careful to not damage the evaporator.

With anything that is spinning, with a small failure, like crack, the centrifugal forces will cause it to fail catastrophically. The more out of balance it is, the greater and faster the cascading of the failure.
Blower motor completely destroyed... how?
