Thank you my issue has been solved,...

Toronto, Ontario, if it matters... So, both mine and my wife's leases ended around the same time. We replaced with one new car on a lease because she's on Mat leave... but we're finding it hard to just have one car if I'm at work all day with it. We'd talked about getting a beater just for me to drive the 8km to work and back. So, old co-worker of my FIL has a 2010 Dodge Journey SE (4 cylinder). The car has high km (194,000 / 120,000miles) but mostly highway. The car is basically accident free, and safety-certified. We're offered the car for $1500 CAD plus I offered to pay for the safety and any necessary labour (about $300 for the inspection, certificate and I think it needed brakes). So, I've told friends that ANY <10 year old car with no accidents, no work needed and a safety certificate is worth at least $2k all day long. I really think this car is ugly and boring but it seems like a great deal. Anything of concern I should be looking for on this vehicle? Like I said, it has a safety certificate but maybe there are common issues that wouldn't be determined on a typical inspection. Please convince me that I'm not making a mistake with this as a 2nd car for commuting.
