yeah, we had this happen to one of our motors from an old robot. We just soldered the wire back onto the remaining tab. What you should do to prevent breaking is to bend the wire so it lays against the motor casing. Tie-wrap the wire to the motor. This will reduce the possibility for undue stress on the motor tabs from the large moment arm of the wire.
