Sounds like the bushings are ruined. Not at all uncommon. If you take the cover off the part with the gears on it you will see what I mean. There are three round bushings, maybe 3/8" or so. They're made of plastic so they are usually the first to go. Clean out all the grease from the gears, find a rebuild kit or get new bushings of ebay, put them in, reassemble everything and it should work fine. Really easy to do. Advanced Auto has a rebuild kit with new gears and bushings for around $25, and I've bought just the bushings from a guy on ebay for less than $5. Either way, good luck!
