Fwiw I have seen a few torn mounts on different P5's on FB and on line so far, so it's not unheard of.

Might even be the case of weakest link. For crash testing purposes some parts are meant to rip off.
They do a lot of this on automotive to soften high speed impact.
Who knows ?

@rocmar's was a pretty solid hit that I'd expect to bend/break something.

Yea you did! You don't need diff. lock, you can clear any obstacle with the speed you carry! HA! Did you ever check on the price of a new frame?

Sepeaking of broken mounts 1 month after I purchased my p5 brand new the exhaust bracket came off the frame and you could take by look at the weld that there was no penetration at all.... carried it back warrant covered it.
