What Problems Can Broken Engine Mounts Cause?

[MacGriffin]

Symptoms of broken engine mounts include: Vehicle vibration: The driver may feel engine vibration when reversing or starting the car; the engine vibration is more noticeable when the car is cold and improves after warming up; Steering wheel vibration: The driver can feel vibrations in the steering wheel and brake pedal when the engine is idling; Abnormal noises: When driving over speed bumps, the driver may hear a 'thud' noise from the engine. The engine mount rubber is used to secure the engine to the frame. During engine operation, vibrations occur, and the presence of the mount rubber prevents resonance between the engine and the frame, providing a cushioning and vibration-damping effect, ensuring comfort for the driver and passengers.
