Nissan Maxima shaking issue after replacing motor mounts on Nissan Maxima

Problem overview

Some Nissan Maxima owners report experiencing persistent shaking issues even after replacing motor mounts, which may indicate that not all mounts were replaced or that the new mounts were improperly installed. Additionally, these owners have noted that the shaking could stem from other underlying problems, such as suspension issues or worn-out components that were overlooked during the motor mount replacement. Those who used non-OEM mounts report that these parts might transmit more engine vibrations than expected, particularly when cold, exacerbating the shaking. Specific symptoms, such as vibrations during acceleration or when releasing the gas, may suggest a faulty motor mount or related issues. It is recommended that owners seek a professional inspection to accurately diagnose any engine-mount problems, especially if the shaking persists, to ensure the vehicle's smooth operation and safety on the road.
