Is a 2001 Honda ex coupe a good car?

Honda Question. 2001 Accord. Please advise. Mount?

• Hello. I just purchased a 2001 Honda accord EX coupe and I love it! I got the car fax report. Had one owner and was maintained regularly. I liked it for that reason and it only has 80,000 miles and its 12 years old. Anyway, when I go from park to drive i feel a "jerk" or something.When I go to any other gear its smooth. I thought it was my transmission. Found out its a broken motor mount. I have warranty and its being fixed monday. My question is, what is a motor mount and what causes it to happen? Thank you.

• Answer:

  Motor mounts (engine mounts) are used to connect a car engine to the car frame. They are usually made of rubber and metal. The metal portion connects to the engine on one side and to the frame on the other. The rubber is in-between to provide some flexibility (so engine shake doesn't cause the car to shake). They break randomly... On my 07 civic coupe it broke within 4 years of owning the car....
