Motor mount sheared off block
 
I have a 2004 Mozda 3 hatch back and just seared the aluminum block bold threads off the side of the engine block. This is on the pasenger side. Has anyone else had this happen? Is Mozda likly to stand behind the repair. (75,000 miles) Any sugestions for a fix besides a new engine block?
I live on a dirt road so drive on lots of rough surface.

i have never heard of this happening before. honestly the onlything i would do is get a whole new block and i highly doubt mazda with help you out here. they'll take one look at the condition of the engine bay and see all that dust and dirt and say your on your own. but hey its worth a shot i guess.
