A powertrain support mount 100 has a first bracket 110 for coupling to a support frame of a vehicle and a second bracket 120 with an attachment portion 124 for coupling to a powertrain component of the vehicle. One of the brackets 120 has an engagement feature 122, for example a pin, for engaging the other bracket 110 when the support frame is deflected during a vehicle collision to pull first bracket 110 away from second bracket 120. The engagement feature engages the other bracket 110 so that first bracket 110 applies a load to second bracket 120 and second bracket 120 fails under this load between the attachment portion and a position where the brackets engage, for example at a notch provided at a necked portion. A support structure with mount 100 and a support rail, and a vehicle with the mount or support structure, are also claimed.
