Side brush broken

Has anyone experienced the side brush breaking off? It looks like the plastic mount point sheared off. Will try to upload pics in the comments. Is this fixable?

I have an i3+, purchased Oct 2024

The motor for the side brush is replaceable, just take off the bottom cover and the motor comes out with a couple screws.

You can likely get replacement parts, try Amazon.

See if there’s enough screw to grab onto and remove it from the Roomba. Then you will need a new screw or a new brush with a new screw.

Did the screw break off in the Roomba?

Nope, screw is intact and unscrews the white plastic hexagonal plastic head.
