I was in a accident three weeks ago, I sled into a guard rail (freezing ice) and damaged my right fender, light and front bumper.

I got the car back two days ago and for some reason in either drive or reverse when braking the car feels very rough and sometimes vibrates heavily. no frame damage I don't understand. I will call the dealer and ask. I absolutely love the car, and enjoy the smooth feel and [slight] vibration. It makes the car feel alive. I regret getting the automatic but still enjoy the ride nonetheless.

is there something that could cause this kind of vibration and if it could be repaired?

broken motor mounts,,,,,,,,,,,, there is a bulliton on it and more then likly not from the wreck but it may have aided in it.

also could be misfiring coils like to arc and burn themsleves out on the backing plates

Thank you for your help. I don't hear misfiring and I had it moving on the expressway, I think maybe motor mounts. are they hard to put in?? thanks again.

not for me depends on the equipment you use we do them all the time at work

i dunno, the guy said "when braking" motor mounts might clunk when braking but not vibrate.



if theres no vibration at idle id suspect warped rotors, maybe a bent hub if you hit the rail hard enough,
