Review on ๐Ÿš— DEA A5446 Front Engine Mount: Reliable Stability for Optimal Performance by Casey Narcisse

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Suspicious Quality Control

I installed this on my 2009 Ford Escape V6 XLT which is exhibiting excessive cabin vibration at idle. It was a very simple setup. You support the engine from below with a jack, and then remove and install the bracket from above. I replaced all four engine and transmission mounts during installation. Vibrations in the cab were minimal after installing the DEA mount but returned to baseline after about 4 months?!? The OEM mount lasted 11 years. This product comes with a 6-month warranty, half that of the competition, and it doesn't even break that mark. Due to its poor performance, I chose to use the SKP SKM3210 with a 12 month warranty rather than making a warranty claim. The SKP mount reduces cab vibrations slightly better than the DEA mount - none versus minimal. We'll see if it lasts, but chances are it will last 4+ months! YMMV but I would consider a shorter warranty.

Pros
  • Excellent Overall Performance
Cons
  • Mystery
