If you haven't crashed it try going into Main Controller Settings the camera and try doing a Gimbal Auto Calibration .ya never know

OP do you get any error messages upon startup?

Did you buy it from DJI? If so, you might want to start a chat with them and maybe start a warranty claim. Go to the bottom where it says online support:

DJI - The World Leader in Camera Drones/Quadcopters for Aerial Photography

not mentioned here, but have you ever forgotten to take off the cover before starting up the drone ?
It happens to the best of people, a few times like that and it could mess up the gimbal.

Your gimbal warranty is good for 6 months on the pro.

Do it now before your warranty runs out. I had a Mavic Pro and the gimbal also broke from one flight to the next, never crashed and never left the cover on when starting up. It turned out to be the top motor of the gimbal had failed. Feel your two rotation motors and see if any of them are felling hot to the touch. My top one was so hot I could not touch it. Mine was also just a few months old. But my gimbal made the slow up and down movement with a tap, tap, tap sound as it reached the max. travel each time.
