Im supposing this is dangerous so I need to get it fixed/replaced asap,
is there a way to repair this, its the rubber mounting that fits up in the metel bracket, theres no bolts broken, just the rubber is pulled away from the rest.
My strut mounting plate came loose from the strut

I've been so unsatisfied with my car since I joined mx3.com.
Seeing all the body kits, rims and engine swaps makes me want to spend all my student loans on my car.

I was told that the rubber area around it was more of a piece that just minimized vibration thoughout the strut mount... I believe the rubber piece actually sit on top of the mount and under the area where the strut actually bolts up to the chassis of the car...
I could be wrong.. but.
the same rubber piece your worried about is worn out in my car.. the rubber is not completely torn away.. but it is torn.. I haven't had any problems and i've been rolling around on this for about a year now ..

well the problem is, when i jacked the car up, the strut assembly (spring, strut and wheel) jsut sat there as the car went up, the plate with the 4 bolts stayed in the strut housing(wheel well) and the rest came done.
confusing? lol lol
when i took the plate of from the car, it had a little bit of that rubber on it and i could fit it back onto the strut, but ofcourse it needs to be made back on to it again.
