Default mrc glitching. HELP!

I haven't drove it for a while and I finally drove it today and it glitches while driving. The steering doesn't glitch but the motor does. I tried putting new batteries in the controller and that didn't do anything. Then I re-binded it. That didn't fix it either. Please help!

Yeah, if your servo is still functioning properly while your motor is spazing, the problem is between the ESC and the motor. Usually if the ESC is glitching, it will cut BEC power to the reciever and your servo would squirm too. That was my problem. I later found condensation in my ESC and I think that was the problem. Granted it was a ten year old super rooster, but letting it dry out it worked just fine. I agree that looking into the motor first is a good move. I had a motor stop and go and sometimes completely bind. Sometimes it would skip the pinion and the spur. I found out that sand had gotten in the bushings and had worn them down to the point that the stator was hitting the outside magnets. I don't know what you have in your MRC, but I hope I could help a little bit.
