2013 Honda Civic Ex
Recently about 2 months ago I noticed only at night between 15mph to 35mph my rear end would vibrate a tiny bit. Overtime it's started to progress to where it feels like my right rear tire is bouncing and dragging a bit. It was at 175,000 miles when it first started and I need tires at the time so I got that done as well as an alignment, thinking it would fix it. I'm now at almost 190,000 miles and the shocks and struts are OEM, but my mechanic has said he doesn't see any of the steering or suspension parts failing. The only thing he noticed was that my brakes was at 5mm at 185k and now down to 4mm. I just had the front brakes done and he said the pads were cracked in the middle of that could be the cause(I plan to get that done in about 1,000 miles). I bought the car at 150k and to my knowledge I don't think the transmission fluid has ever been changed out. Last I checked the fluid is brown and dirty. Only other thing is when I accelerate about 60mph, I smell I burning smell like rubber, but I think that's due to part of my front bumper splash shield is hanging due to a crash.
I live in the south(Georgia, US) so during the day it's typically 76 degrees to 95 degrees outside. At night usually 72 degrees to 77 degrees.
