Broken motor mounts

my cars engine was vibrateing only on first start up in the am, then fine the rest of the day, it did seem to be a little more noise coming from the car on rough pavement. I though it was in the wheels or a bad wheel. Two problems that seemed umrelated, I searched the net and as usual see what most other owners are having issues with, Motor mounts. I have very low miles on my 2004, I took into my local dealer and both mounts are broke. I am sorry there is no way this could happen on such a gentley used car as mine, obviously its a part failure and people should stop paying for this and do a lot more complaining. My local dealer finally agreed that it was unusual failure and Acura absorbed the cost of repairs, Thanks to all the complaints on the net it helped me prove this is a widespread problem. Also there was just no justificaton for my car which was under millage to have both mounts broke! complain and get it paid for

BTW, since there are 3 motor mounts for our cars, hopefully you got 3 replaced.
