Dolphin was found with roller off

Purchased my Dolphin last year 5-2010 and used it for 3 months and loved how well it worked and how much time it saved. This year after using it for 2 months, came home and found it in the pool with one roller off. After checking it out, I found a small piece of string on the roller and removed it, but after putting back together, it would run for 2 or 3 sec. and stop. Was told motor was burned out and would cost over 300.00 to replace. Pretty expensive for just a small piece of string you couldn't even see in the pool. There should be some kind of shut off if roller or gears get hung to prevent this.
