I'm going on a somewhat long 2 hour(each way) road trip next week. I have 2 cars and I don't know which one to take.
First car:
2008 Subaru. 62k miles. New tires, new brakes, all new fluids(besides coolant, which is getting done after I get back).
Only issues are that:
1) a TPMS sensor broke off and is rolling around in the passenger front tire(just did a rotation and noticed it)
2) Saw some oil coming from the CV Boots. Oil is gone now. Not clicking or making any weird noises yet. Planning on doing it once it starts clicking as I just got an alignment done and I drove mostly local.
3) steering wheel will sway abit sometimes at speed. It started happening after I rotated the wheel with the rolling sensor to the front, so i assume it's just not balanced.
4) clunking noise coming from passenger side rear end. Almost like a piece of metal hitting a heat shield or something. Only happens sometimes at 15-20 mph
Second car:
2011 Honda. 43k miles. All fluids check out good, new air filter. Tires have decent tread left but are 4 years old.
Issues:
1) alignment may be a little off(see a slight amount of wear on the side of the tread. Nothing crazy though.
2. Front rotor is warped. Shakes a little when slowing from 50 to 40. Completely fine otherwise.
3) headlights are a little dim. They work but aren't as bright as the ones in my Subaru.
So which one is safer to take? Are both good to go? Both are driven daily with no issues. Am I just being paranoid?
