Check the plastic retaining ring inside that holds the lower burr in place. Mine broke, but they're cheap and easy to replace.

Upper burr carrier looks good to me.
It needs to have three little wings on the outside of the ring. These fit into the threads in the screw-like adjustment mechanism.
Mine looked good until I realized two of the three wings had broken clean off and disappeared.
It's a big part of why they say to adjust the grind with the motor running. If you change it to a finer grind while beans are wedged in the burrs you're putting pressure on these fragile wings.
upper burr carrier wings are looking good to me
looks like they are carrying a new type of hopper gasket now and its back in stock
