Replaced engine mounts at under 70k, now having to replace again at 112k. Seems very unusual and no warranty for the 1st ones replaced (after 12mo/12K). Normal city/hwy driving, just doesn't seem right.
TOOK IT IN FOR A RECALL AND THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT THE FRONT AND RIGHT SIDE MOUNTS WERE CRACKED. LOOKING ONLINE I FIND THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM. WHEN DOES IT BECOME A RECALL? IT IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM IF THE MOUNTS ALLOW ENOUGH MOVEMENT.
I DON'T SEE ANYTHIONG THAT LOOKS LIKE A PROBLEM. IS THIS JUST A WAY TO GENERATE MORE REVENUE AT THE DEALER?
@ 60,000 check, ok @ 67,500 2 engine mounts broken. I am almost 60. I am the only driver. I never race, haul trailores, or go off roading. Why did theis happen. How is it NOT a waranty issue? Why was it not noticed at 60,000 check a few months ago. I have low mileage and NONE severe.
At 67,821 miles the front and side motor mounts had to be replaced. This car has only been driven for pleasure and never driven off road or taken four-wheeling. This is the second major problem that occurred with this car. The rear crankshaft seal had to be replaced when the car was purchased new.

Had to replace 2 motor mounts due to the old ones getting loose.
