Default Surely risky to drive, if both those plates are gone the transmission is probably not secured

to the subframe

Default Thanks Boston, subframe mounts and bolts are gone, AND my axles are cracked

Will run me $1300 from dealer.

Here's my question - if my front axels were cracked, was my car jsut "driving" from the rear wheel drive? I had no symptoms of bad drive, steering or otherwise.. . . .

it's very strange . . .
