The symptoms of a broken car engine mount are: 1. When driving at low gear with high torque, there will be a jerking phenomenon, and the car will also jerk when reversing, which can only be solved by increasing the throttle; 2. When starting or turning on the air conditioning for cooling, the engine shakes violently, and the steering wheel vibrates noticeably at high speeds, with the accelerator and brake pedals also having a noticeable vibration; 3. When accelerating in second or third gear, a sound similar to rubber friction is often heard. The engine mount cushion, also known as the engine mount rubber, is technically called the engine suspension. Its main function is to support the engine and distribute the load. Every time the engine starts, there is a torsional moment, and the engine mount rubber helps balance this force. Additionally, the engine mount rubber also serves to dampen vibrations and support the engine. If it is damaged, the immediate manifestation is severe engine shaking, possibly accompanied by abnormal noises.
