THE C350
Thats your strut mount you want to get that car to a shop to get that shock mount replaced or at the very least the bolt removed and a new on installed immediately.

Have you checked your alignment and for play in all the suspension components?

Take the broken piece to any nuts & bolts shop and ask for a replacement stainless steel bolt of the same size and length. You may try any hardware shop near your place.
