2011 Nissan Juke Complaint Log

I HAVE BROUGHT MY 2011 NISSAN JUKE TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES BECAUSE THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY. THE LIGHT COMES ON AND GOES OFF FREQUENTLY WITHOUT A PROBLEM. I HAVE BROUGHT THE CAR IN WITH THE LIGHT ON AND NO PROBLEM COULD BE FOUND SO THEY WOULD RESET THE LIGHT. MANY PEOPLE ON THE INTERNET HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM, THERE IS A SERVICE BULLETIN FOR THE PROBLEM YET THE DEALER REFUSES TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. TODAY I MADE THE DEALER AWARE OF THE SERVICE BULLETIN (THEY SAID THAT THEY DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT IT) THEY SAID THAT MY VIN IS NOT PART OF THE BULLETIN YET I HAVE THE IDENTICAL PROBLEM. I CALLED NISSAN, THEY AGREED WITH THE DEALER AND SAID UNLESS THE DEALER COULD FIND A DEFECT THERE IS NOTHING THAT THEY COULD DO. TODAY I ACTUALLY DID HAVE A NAIL IN MY TIRE AND THANKFULLY I WAS AT THE DEALER FOR ANOTHER RECALL. I HAVE GROWN SO USED TO SEEING THE LIGHT ON I NOW IGNORE IT. MY FEAR IS THAT I WILL AGAIN IGNORE A PROBLEM AND IT COULD CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 NISSAN JUKE. THE CONTACT STATED THE ENGINE FAILED AND THE BATTERY DRAINED EXCESSIVELY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 90,000. THE WINDSHIELD MADE A SQUEAKING AND RATTLING NOISE WHEN DRIVING AND GOING OVER BUMPS. IT WAS ALMOST A CONSTANT SOUND. THE ENGINE WOULD IDLE AND SPUTTER, WHEN STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT. WHEN THE CONSUMER ACCELERATED FROM THE LIGHT, THE VEHICLE STALLED. IT WAS DETERMINED THE TIMING CHAIN SNAPPED AND CAUSED DAMAGE TO THE CRANK SPROCKET AND CHAIN. THE TIMES CHAINS, GUIDES, TIMING CHAIN TENSIONER AND CRANK SPROCKET WERE ALL REPLACED. THE VEHICLE STARTED BUT MIS-FIRED DUE TO THE VALVES BEING BENT. THE ENGINE BLOCK WAS THEN REPLACED, DUE TO DAMAGE TO THE VALVE GUIDES AND PISTON TOPS. THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE TO TOWED TO THE DEALER, BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WAS EMITTING BLUE GRAYISH, COLORED SMOKE, AND THEN STALLED. UPDATED 06/18/14
