Yup, that seems to be what happens.  It's a known problem.  I must
admit not having thought about putting a large tire on it.  That was
clever.  Call Lego Customer Service and ask for replacements.

Are they known to respond to this? We had a motor that was frozen the
moment we got it out of the bag, so I'd love to get a new one.

Yes, just call them up. The number is on the Lego web site. They will send
you a new one. My rate so far is 1 out of 9 not working out of the box. The
bad one came out of a recently aquired set. Which means I either got a set
that has been in a warehouse for a while, or the problem with the motors
hasn't been fixed yet.
