Default Lens retraction motor problem with Olympus C700

I've had 2 failures on my Olympus C700 camera with the lens motor
failing. When the camera is turned on the lens extends and retracts
on power down. In both instances the lens would not retract and a
motor/whirring noise was heard. Has anyone else had this problem?
The camera is two years old and two failures seems excessive.

Has anyone else had this problem?

thanx, mark

My Canon Powershot S50 does that when the battery is too low. How's your
battery/charge?
