How long can I drive on old motor mounts? I have a move coming up soon and I really don’t have the finances to do the repairs now.

It depends… “old” motor mounts or failed? Old is OK to drive with, failed is a better question to the mechanic who is looking at which mounts and how failed. Maybe get a second opinion from another shop.
