Im really starting to be really sad.. i did not have any parts breakages yet but i just had a lot of bad luck with my first arrma car. Now my motor bearing completly exploded killing my motor for sure because i saw winding inside the can being in place it should not be in:c

That sucks. Mine blew recently too. Took the opportunity to upgrade to a 4S motor/ESC out of a Kraton.
 
Warranty the motor Horizon should hook you up. I don't have a BLX motor and even if I did I would replace the front bearing before running it. You are not the only one to have a front bearing motor problem and won't be the last. One thing I would tell anyone new about front motor bearings going bad along with other bearings.

What should i do then when i get the new motor?

This is just me but I would replace the front bearing when you get it once a bearing explodes in can be a pain in the butt to remove. So hope it doesn't fail or try a new bearing that's up to you.
 
Meh I beat the crap out of my rigs and don’t see this as a warranty issue. I’m glad to keep Jenny’s kid’s tuition fund on target.
