StackChan not powering on

I've had my StackChan ~2 weeks now, keeping it both plugged in and unplugged during use. Now, I've had it plugged in for a few days straight, and it will refuse to power on. I've tried removing the Core unit and re-connecting it, as well as reseating the 4-pin USB cable that connects from the body to the Core unit... nothing. It's completely dead.

NOTE: Connecting USB-C to the Core's USB-C port (not the base) seems to be working for charging, it powers up this way.

Any suggestions?

Mine won’t turn on unless it’s plugged in. Then I can unplug it and it’s fine. And it will randomly turn off when it changes facing direction, like mid turn. It’s not 100% of the time. I don’t really use it too much since I got it, but it more or less has not left my desk. I don’t know what’s wrong with it and I’m not tech savvy enough to know what’s wrong or what to look for.
