I noticed that my Prowler wasn't cleaning the pool very well. I cleaned out the impeller, but still had some issues. It would get stuck in the corners or on a wall. You could see it sucking water, but not moving. I just took it out and it looks like both belts are coming off of the rear wheels (and clicking). Any ideas? Here's a video of it running: Prowler Video
Prowler 920 issue with belt

Sounds about normal to me..
I suggest that you replace both tracks and install new "Wheel kits"..
These robots have no bearings.. They just have plastic riding on plastic, which wears out. Wheel Kits replace the worn plastic parts..
Thanks,

I was hoping it was something easy. I might look into the warranty options. I've only had it 16 months.
Do these normally wear this quick?

I contacted Marina (purchased at), they suggested the wheel kit as well. I looked at one of the front wheels and the bushing seems loose. The two year warranty is only on the motor, power supply, and cable. These are considered wear items. Still seems like it wore out pretty quick.
Just to report back. The wheel kits didn't help the issue. I didn't want to wait any longer, so I purchased some tracks off of Amazon. They seemed to fix the issue.
