If they are just loose, tighten up, also check the bolts to the brackets under the mounts, which you get to through the wheelwells.
Front mount goes most often, and is easy to check. Just behind radiator fans you can see the mount. Have a helper let out clutch or put in drive with e-brake on, and if mount is bad, you can see it lift up. Be reasonably careful. If you see movement, you can inspect further by removing the U-bracket over mount. Look for cracks in rubber. If it's bad pull the fans, jack the engine a couple of inches and the mount is easy Next mount to go bad is left side near exhaust manifold. Check that this one has not collapsed, by sticking the tip your little finger between the top of the mount and the bracket to the block. If there's no room, time for a new mount. The right side is fairly easy to do. the trick for the right side is to undo the front so that you can jack the engine up enough to clear the stud in the center of the mount.
The left side is a pain both to inspect and switch out, but probably is fine, because it is not subject to exhaust heat or much torque. Just check the big horizontal bolt and the bolts in the wheel well.
