My car when I bought it seemed to have a small little stall upon take off from a rolling stop. I have had it for almost a year I have taken it in due to what i thought was a cv joint problem or something else and the shop told me i had only 1 engine mount holding my engine down. Here is my question. Is this something that happens to a car with fairly low miles like my car when i bought it? How do they break? I think they were broke when I bought the car but how do I prove that?? There are 7 of them total for my little 4 cylinder. sp. The price ranges from 50 to 125 for each one! not to count the labor. Has anyone had this problem? Is it a common problem? Thank you
