Q: Transmission mount cracked

asked by on February 16, 2016

The transmission mount is cracked.

The transmission mount would need to be replaced, and all the other mounts checked for cracks as well. It is normal for the mounts to crack or break over time from wear and tear. I recommend that you have a mechanic, such as one from YourMechanic, come by and check your car for you.
