Your engine will sink, eventually dropping the transmission onto the subframe, and vibration will cause a crack/leak in transmission casing.

I have a 97 Grand Cherokee laredo. Rear hatch will not work. I replaced it but see no adjustments.?

depending on which mounts are bad, the engine/trans assembly will lift up, then slam back down on acceleration/ deceleration, gear shifting.etc. not a good thing, and i will guarantee you it will tear up things that normally dont go bad.

Should I get my car bumper re-painted?

happened 2 me. it twist. can cause major body damage. shifting linkige can break throttle can become stuck open cold bend crankshaft meaning full engine rebuild. mounts are reletively easy and not too expensive to replace. all that is really needed is a couple of jacks new mounts from the local Napa or other automotive parts shop probably ordered. and the right size wrenches. At an honest auto shop 200 or 300 $

VW Golf MK3, 1996 : wont start then turn lights flash once and shshsh noise comes from dashboard. Any idea?

This happened on my jeep, and the twisting motion broke the exhaust pipe as it enters the muffler, which sucked since it was only about 18 months old.
But much worse things can happen if the remaining mount(s) fail. Mounts are cheap. Fix them before it becomes an expensive mess.
