Default anyone had this problem before???

k just started leaking transmission fluid... jacked up the front end and investigated, found the leak wasn't near the transmission at all. there was a hose from the bottom of the radiator to some thing else and it had a worn hole in it... spilling red liquid.... then i noticed that the radiator was loose... the entire THING MOVABLE!!!!

i noticed that its held up by two bushings thats it... i was missing the bushing on the right so the radiator/fans fell into the hose... the thing that saved my life and my engine... that little hose made enough clearance to where the fans/radiator were 1/2 inch away from my engine....

for the time being I clipped off the hose where the leak was and reattached it luckily there was enough slack so i could salvage the hose... and for the bushing.... i know its trashy but i used a shop rag and balled it up and shoved it in there..... any way i haven't got the bushing yet and i was wondering if anyone else had the same problem, and if so how much was the bushing???

Get in for service ASAP. Are you still under warranty?

Just call the local dealer. Should be a simple fix.
