Kenmore Not Filling, Leaking Out Bottom

Not sure of the model, but can probably get that information once I am home.

Dishwasher is less than 2 years old. Began making funny loud noise a few months ago that I would explain as a sound coming from some kind of motor. Loud humming type noise. The start is one of those turn knobs, and I blamed my fiance for not turning the knob all the way to the start of the cycle. When I did it and stopped on the beginning of the "normal" cycle it seemed to fix the problem, for a while.

Then one night it was making the weird noise, but I let it run all the way through the cycle. When it was done I realized all the water was all over the floor and no water had ever entered the machine.

We pulled off the front panel last night and ran it so we could see where the leak was coming from. My fiance describes it as coming from behind the motor around the middle of the machine.

We are just trying to determine if this is something we should pay to have someone come fix, or if we should just buy a new dishwasher. It's a cheap dishwasher that was installed by the renovators that sold me my condo. My guess is maybe it was $300 (big maybe). Not sure it's worth it.
