How to fix late 2014 iMac fusion drive not mounting the whole HDD?

A few days back, Disk Utility froze in the middle while I was trying to create a new partition on my late 2014 iMac with a Fusion Drive. Ever since then, the whole HDD will not mount except for the new partition. Disk Utility is useless in repairing the drive. Does any of you have a solution? Thx!
