motor mounts
2011 HHR - less than 5000 miles. 3 times after coming to a stop I felt intense vibrations coming thru the steering wheel. I opened the hood and the engine was vibrating furiously. Took to dealer - they could not find anything. About a week ago I noticed some kind of lubricant under the car. I took to dealer - said it was a bad seal where transaxle cooler pipes connect to the transmission. I asked if the engine vibrations could have caused this - they said no. After I got the work order, I noticed they replaced the transaxle cooler pipes. I believe the vibrations caused this problem. The next time this happens I will place a container of liquid on top of the engine and video the effects of these furious vibrations. I will also use it to prepare a case if I am forced to resort to a LemonLaw case. I believe it's a faulty motor mount - I will want them to replace all 4 mounts as the damage caused by these furious vibrations will surely be causing collateral damage.
