Or ... It might be the way that you are using the gears (or it might not).
More stress than the part was designed to withstand = It breaks.
How do you know that you aren't exceeding their advertised ability to withstand static or dynamic loads?
Instead of writing "it's the gears", you might need to write "it's our robot"?
