You can raise car and use a long pry bar and use it to pry at motor mounts if they have excessive play they would need to be changed.

Is car misfiring or do you have a check engine light?

No my car isn't misfiring and it had a check engine light go on about a year ago, but then it went off and I haven't had any troubles since.

Have car scanned at some autoparts stores for free. Even though the Check engine light in not on, it will store the code as a history code.

With hood open, have someone rev engine a few times, it engine moves more than 2-3 inches, the motor mounts are probably bad.

It is problematical as to driving the car, in most cases it will not cause severe damage, but can cause the trans case to crack or other problems.
