Cavalier Engine Mount Vibration

My wife's 2002 Cavalier has just had both engine mounts replaced. After being repaired, a loud vibration could be heard coming from the engine mounts under heavey acceleration. The mechanic agreed to fix this at his own expense. The problem was that each new engine mount installed would break/come apart directly after installation. The struts were replaced 3 times. The mechanic has now found a strut which doesn't break, but unfortunately the car vibrates all the time.

Has anyone had a similar experience and what was the solution?

Many thanks in anticipation!
