Broke/Sheared my tranny mount bolts

My truck has had a vibration lately.....So I started checking the u-joints, actually pulled the front driveshaft and did a test drive and it still had a vibration I finally found that the bolts that bolt the tranny to the tranny mount were sheared off. Anyone else ever had this happen????

My truck has 50K on it........I think I only have 36K warranty, I could be wrong. Maybe I will call my dealer tomorrow.

Has that trans been out before? Bolts left loose and tranny moving around would shear them over time.

Nope.....Tranny has never been out of it. I found what was left of one of the bolts laying on top of the crossmember. It didn't have any visual signs of wear on it.......looks like it just sheared.
