Hi there it can be 1 or two things

It's either the motor has burnt out or it's the actual headphone, silent or volume flex.

Before you order any parts you could just take out the motor and bend the little prongs slightly and see does this sort it

Also, the 4 GSM and the iPhone 4 verizon use different vibrators. the Verizon/CDMA version uses a button shaped vibrator, like in the 4s.
