Judging by the fireworks show inside I would be questioning if the brushes even exist anymore or it’s just running on the springs

Good news is that carbon brushes are cheaper than a new drill

That drill costs like $25 bucks sooooooooo

Doesn't mean shit. I got a $25 powered no name screw driver and I use it every time I gotta grab a screwdriver. For years. No issues with it.

Sadly most things are made to just die after a year and go into a landfill.
