I'm still not sure what the symptoms of a bad O2 sensor would be?

WOuld it cause the temperature gauge to ride way up on idle?

Would it cause the slight hesitation after acceleration? (Doesn't seem to register right away when the pedal is pressed down...like a little pause.)

Would it cause the car to stall?

Would it cause the car to not start properly, (or as it normally did prior to this occurring?)

Would it cause the fan to come on after the car is shut off, more often than normally? (A LOT more often...even after having driven a couple of miles?)

Even a list of "yes, yes, no, no, yes" would be helpful. I'm trying to sort of self-diagnose whether the entire culprit could be the O2 sensor, or what else they might have done. We paid $500 to have the motor mounts done, and now this is the result.

I also assume we should not be driving the car?

Thank you, thank you...
