My fan went as well, first became slow, then stopped but would run slowly for a while if helped to start by the hand. I took I out and apart to see if I could replace brushes but commutator were worn out so I got another fan from A8parts. Seams that they fail more on cars with solar sunroof because of extra running time when parked and working from sun.
