how many are we talking about here, ive drove with the front motor mount destroyed, the motor bucks when load is put on it, as when the car leaves from a dead stop. if it was a 100 miles of hwy, the motor mounts would play little role as in doing anything but existing.
i cant see more than one motor mount being destroyed at the same time as the other,... unless someone drove the car until the other one broke.
and even then if someone continued to drive the car while 2 were broke and managed to break the last one to finally stop the car from moving forward. clearly the car was beat into the ground to have all three busted mounts and there would be no way anyone other than the person who broke the mounts by driven the car into the ground should own the car.(be sides it being rust free)
can you imaging how hard the motor was ran, and i guarantee the oil changes stopped when the first mount was broke.
personally i would guess the front mount went first, showing the driver clearly by the shifter shacking, (if this is the only problem the car can be drove 1100 miles if you want with no prob. hwy speeds is no problem for it.
stoplights and stop and go traffic will be very hard on the other mounts with the front busted.
