Chassis Rigidity
Because the engine and transmission in a modern uni body car essentially functions as a structural member, cracked or worn motor mounts will inevitably result in severe chassis flex. A flexing chassis can result in poor handling, creaking weather-seals and door hinges, and cracked strut-tower braces. Over time, an overly flexing chassis can permanently bend sheet metal and cause misalignment of hood and door panels.
