Zoom lenses issues

I have a Sigma DG 70-300mm 1:4-5.6 Macro zoom lenses that I am having problems with the zooming on it. It will act like it is trying to some and you can hear the zoom motor running but it will not actually zoom and take the shot, however it does at times not have any issues.

I had a problem with a Sigma 300mm zoom myself. A few days after I got it, the motor shot craps. It was used. I then went looking at reviews and found that this not an uncommon problem. Too bad. I really liked that lens.

Thank you I did have an issue with the camera not working at all and sent it back and they replaced it for me... have had the new for probably a year and it has been used a good bit so maybe I have just got the good out of it and need to look into replacing it

The lens has a power zoom?

I think he is talking about the focus motor.
