Consumer Description

ALL MY TRANSMISSION MOUNT BOLTS HAVE FAILED. THE RIGHT MOUNT BOLTS FAILURE WAS NOTED WHEN HAVING MY TIMING BELT REPLACED AT 60K. THE FRONT MOUNT BOLTS WERE NOTED JUST PRIOR TO THAT WHEN I HEARD NOSES THAT SOUNDED LIKE MY CLUTCH WAS FAILING. IN THIS CASE THE FRONT BOLT HAD BEEN BROKEN. THE LEFT SIDE FAILURE JUST OCCURED, LEADING TO MY ENGINE TO DROP OUT AS I WAS MOVING. THE RESULT OF ONE BROKEN BOLT AND ONE DETHREADED BOLT, I'M NOT SURE WHAT ORDER THIS HAPPENED. I AM LUCKY THAT I WAS NOT KILLED AS I WAS GOING SLOW WHEN IT HAPPENED. *AK
