Nikon F100 making strange noise, not winding film any more

[Tomro]

Last Saturday out of the blue I got the opportunity to get a Nikon F100. But first, I checked its functioning and loaded a film and fired a few shots (9 or so, the roll was still in, therefore). Thinking that it was ok, I took it home.
Yesterday I reached the end of the roll and therefore pressed the 2 buttons to start the rewind. After about 1 second the F100 made a strange noise, but the picture counter remained at 38 (expired Kodak film roll). First, I thought it might be the roll itself, so I took the film out in a changing bag, and to check again the functioning I first made sure that the rewind crank was ok (it seems ok) and inserted another roll (commercial role, not self spooled), but the camera is unable to load the film, and I always get an error (tried 3 different rolls) and it makes a strange noise: one can hear the motor but nothing happens with the film, so something must have been broken during this one film I shot.
Is this repairable? Im not sure I can give this one back, would be a shame. the camera is otherwise in great conditions, it seems (apart from the rubbery back)

Return it, if you can.

Not familiar with this camera, but I AM familiar with nylon or plastic gears, which I'll bet a nickle are in there. As many cameras and other machinery I've worked on in my life, my own decision would be not to even bother opening it up to find out. Sad to say

The F100 has two well known issues/failures
The rewind fork is number one.
The second common issue is the camera back where the focus selector fails.
