If the vehicle is continuously driven under such condition, the no. 4 engine mount bolt may loosen and pull out or break, allowing the transmission to be out of position. In extreme cases, the drive shaft may become detached. If this occurs the vehicle will lose power and will come to a stop, increasing the risk of a crash.
