About this model
The Nissan Juke is a subcompact crossover SUV (B-segment) produced by the Japanese car manufacturer Nissan since 2010. Debuted as a production vehicle at the 2010 Geneva Motor Show in March, it was introduced to North America at the 2010 New York International Auto Show to be sold for the 2011 model year as the smallest crossover in Nissan's lineup prior to the introduction of the Nissan Magnite in 2020.

What fails its inspection
Great Britain's MOT record for the 2013 1.6 petrol. 7,814 of 30,770 tests failed, 25%.
Better than 15% of 2013 cars. The typical one fails 19%, across 828 models with enough tests behind them to say.
| Where | Share of failures | Failed tests |
|---|---|---|
| Suspension | 54% | 4,185 |
| Steering | 33% | 2,557 |
| Brakes | 23% | 1,796 |
| Tyres and wheels | 21% | 1,651 |
| Lights and electrics | 20% | 1,587 |
| Visibility | 16% | 1,225 |
The defects inspectors cite
- A suspension pin, bush or joint excessively worn
- A steering ball joint with excessive wear or free play
- Tyre tread depth not in accordance with the requirements
- A brake lining or pad worn below 1.5mm
- Wiper blade missing or obviously not clearing the windscreen
- Windscreen washers not working or not providing sufficient fluid to clear the windscreen
Where it stands out against its peers
- Steering: failed more often than 97% of 2013 cars — 33% of its 7,814 failed tests, where an ordinary 2013 car has 4%.
Same model year only, at least 30 peer cars, zeros included. Every car has a worst part; this shows which, and how far from ordinary it is. A high share means more to check, not a verdict.
NHTSA's investigations are American; no European regulator publishes an equivalent record, so this section has nothing to draw on for a European car. There is no European equivalent of the service-bulletin register either.

When it starts failing
At 160–180k miles this one fails 34% of its inspections, against the 24% an ordinary car of the same age fails.
| Odometer | Failure rate | Rate | Its age | Tests |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0–20k miles | 6% | 8% | 284 | |
| 20–40k miles | 14% | 12% | 2,857 | |
| 40–60k miles | 22% | 16% | 8,386 | |
| 60–80k miles | 27% | 20% | 9,906 | |
| 80–100k miles | 30% | 22% | 6,183 | |
| 100–120k miles | 31% | 24% | 2,211 | |
| 120–140k miles | 33% | 24% | 683 | |
| 140–160k miles | 34% | 24% | 182 | |
| 160–180k miles | 34% | 24% | 44 |
30,736 British inspections, grouped by the odometer reading recorded at the test.
Half of these have more than 60k miles on them. That is how far people drive this car, not how long it lasts.

Recalls
Filed by the manufacturer with a regulator. A recall is repaired free of charge, whoever owns the car now.
A12/00391/21
Due to an error in the driver's airbag folding process, the heat shield may not move fully into position around the inflator when the airbag is activated.Consequently, hot gas can directly contact the front panel of the airbag, causing burn damage to the bag material. As a result, the airbag may tear during inflation reducing its protective function.

A12/00724/23
If the accelerator and brake pedals are pressed simultaneously, it causes a hybrid electric vehicle control (HEVC) reset. This can lead to that the engine stumbles or stalls under specific driving conditions (when the engine is cold, immediately after starting), creating a risk of an accident. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.

A12/01430/21
Due to a design change introducing an internal chamfer in the rear seat back lock button, the latch actuation rod can catch on this chamfer, preventing its upwards movement.As a result the rear seat back may not be securely latched when returned to its upright position after folding, and the occupant of the rear seat and any items stored in the luggage compartment may not be correctly restrained in the event of an accident, increasing the risk of injury. The product does not comply with the requirements laid down in the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of Motor Vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.

A12/0243/13
In the event that the driver's airbag is deployed during a frontal impact, small holes may appear on the surface of the airbag. The holes are caused by high temperature gas from the airbag inflator exhausting directly onto the surface of the airbag material. Contact of the high temperature gas / airbag material with the driver’s skin can cause burns.

A12/0267/16
An incorrect calibration setting in the Engine Control Module (ECM) software may cause miscalculation of sulfur oxide (SOx) levels captured within the Lean NOx Trap (LNT) component of the exhaust’s Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). This miscalculation could, with extended operation under certain driving conditions, affect the purge process applied to remove SOx particles from the DPF-LNT. In this condition, the capacity of the DPF-LNT may become saturated and, as a result, the nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions from the vehicle could exceed the permitted level.

The push engine start switch may remain in the pressed position and not return after switching the engine on. If the vehicle continues to be driven in this condition, the emergency engine stop function may operate and cause the engine to stop unexpectedly.
Recall of the product from end users
A12/0879/16
The sensor of the rear oxygen sensor might fail and does not set a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) in case of inappropriate content of the exhaust gases. In such cases, the user is not warned through the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) on the dashboard.
Recall of the product from end users
A12/1281/18
An internal ignition switch may be defective. As a consequence, the engine could unexpectedly stall while driving and under certain conditions the vehicle's airbag system may not function.
