Duncan is right, pictures will help so much. I believe that it's unusual for the near side to fail, but I guess not impossible?

It is almost certain you are referring to the bodywork ( or lack of it ) to which the mounts are attached.

Because as they say, a picture paints a thousand words, and they will give us a better understanding of the problem.

All I know is that the garage is trying to source replacements and nothing was said about any welding etc.
