wut do u mean motors directly attached to the wheels? You mean the clutch is attached to the axle and the axle is attached to the wheel right...?
I'm sorry. The motors are attached to the clutch and the clutch to the wheels using a driveshaft. When I said directly I meant there are no gears.

The clutches are not falling off. They are slipping so that no torque goes to the wheels. I assume that the teeth inside the clutch are damaged as there is no visible damage on the outside of the gears.
