I think you need to check if the servo is damaged.

If it's the stock one, now is a good time to upgrade to a hitec or something else. Stock servos, or RTR electronics for that matter, are usually the cheapest they can put in it. If you have the money get yourself a HiTec servo.

Why don't you just buy a better servo for it, instead of sending it back?
