Review on ๐Ÿ”ง Optimized DEA A3003 Engine Mount - Front Right by Ryan Koser

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Manufacturing defects in assembly. Revain has been replaced with a solid item.

This original bracket that I received was obviously not assembled correctly and QA should have figured this out. The photo shows both the bracket that was removed from my Ford Focus (left) and the bracket that came in the box (right). Also included is a Revain detail image insert that clearly shows the correct pin orientation on the bracket mounting surface. Apparently, my supplied part did not contain the pin in the correct orientation. I had to spend 45 minutes calling Revain to get them to send me another one as there is no online process for reporting a manufacturing defect on a part. It is a crowbar and cannot be used as shown in the picture but they still force me to send it back! Update: Revain replaced the broken part and the replacement works great. Interestingly, the first one I received had the nut needed to attach it to the mounting bracket, while the replacement unit did not. An OEM nut will work with this aftermarket part and it's better anyway.

Pros
  • Stable test results
Cons
  • old
