Nissan Motor Mounts - Genuine OEM Parts
Motor mounts is an important part of your car. This is why it's important to keep motor mounts well maintained. These rubber and metal assemblies secure your engine to the vehicle frame while absorbing vibrations during operation. When motor mounts fail, you'll notice excessive engine movement, vibrations in the cabin, and unusual noises during acceleration. At Empire Nissan of Bay Ridge, we stock genuine Nissan motor mounts that deliver the exact fit and performance your vehicle needs.
How Motor Mounts Support Your Engine
Motor mounts work by creating a stable connection between your engine and chassis while dampening vibrations that would otherwise transfer throughout the vehicle. The rubber component absorbs engine movement while the metal brackets provide structural support. Your Altima relies on multiple motor mounts positioned strategically around the engine bay. These mounts also prevent excessive engine rock during hard acceleration or braking. When functioning properly, you shouldn't feel engine vibrations through the steering wheel or floor.
Why Motor Mounts Deteriorate Over Time
Motor mounts break down primarily due to the constant stress from engine vibrations and temperature changes. The rubber deteriorates from exposure to heat, oil, and road chemicals, causing it to crack or separate from the metal housing. High-mileage vehicles and those with performance modifications experience faster motor mount wear. Signs of failure include clunking noises during gear changes, visible engine movement when revving, and increased cabin vibrations. We recommend inspection every 60,000 miles, though Rogue owners in stop-and-go traffic may need replacement sooner.
Choose Genuine Nissan Motor Mounts
Genuine Nissan motor mounts use the exact rubber compounds and metal alloys specified for your vehicle, ensuring proper vibration dampening and longevity. Aftermarket alternatives often use inferior materials that fail prematurely or don't provide adequate vibration isolation. Our genuine parts maintain the precise engine positioning required for proper belts alignment and accessory operation. Generic mounts may cause premature wear on other engine components due to improper fitment or inadequate support.
