Why will my wife's Galaxy S4 not take a charge?

My wife's Galaxy S4, purchased new on September 14, 2013, will not charge.  The device will not recognize that the charging cord is plugged in.  So far I have tried the following:

-Using several different cords, including the factory cord for my Galaxy S4

-Switching batteries between my S4 and hers

-Letting the device run the battery down to 0%

-Plugging the USB cord into a computer

-Resetting (obviously)

-Turning on/off power saving mode

-Ensuring the port is free of debris, and that the tab inside is straight and not compromised

Any input, advice or help is appreciated.

There is no physical or water damage.  It was working great, then an hour later it wouldn't take a charge.
