MinnKota twist handle does not change speed of motor

Minn-Kota Riptide 70 is less than 1 year old. Wife and I we out fishing and she accidently hit the control handle while in horizontal position and forced it up to a 90degree angle. I know the handle is made to move in this direction but after this event the motor would not go any faster than the #1 power setting. Is it possible we've over-ranged the movement of the handle and damaged the control linkage between the handle and the electronic motor controller?
