The af motor went out on my 28-70L today. Are there still parts out there to repair this lens? I emailed a couple places for quotes, but I don't know if I just need to be looking for a new 24-70. Thanks

If Canon doesn't I am sure that there are 3rd party service centers that can repair it. Mine had a couple of loose elements a couple of years ago and got it repaired locally.

let me know about the process.
I have an 28-70L with broken glass, but USM still works.
