2014 Nissan Juke Complaint Log

ELECTRICAL ISSUES BEGAN WITHIN MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING (DEC 2014). NAVIGATION SYSTEM, RADIO, INTERIOR LIGHTS ALL GO HAYWIRE UNEXPECTEDLY. RADIO//NAVIGATION COMPLETELY BLACK; INTERIOR LIGHTS EITHER STAY ON, FLICKER OR WON'T COME ON AT ALL. AFTER TAKING IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP & HAVING THEM TEST IT, THEY ALWAYS CLAIMED THEIR COMPUTERS DIDN'T CATCH ANY ISSUES. I REQUESTED THAT MY COMPLAINTS BE MARKED DOWN & SENT IN TO MANUFACTURER EVERY TIME. THAT BEGAN HAPPENING BEFORE 20,000 MILES AND CONTINUES TODAY (115,000 MILES). THE CAR HAS NEVER THROWN ANY CODES & NEVER HAD ANY CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS, OR ANY SUCH MECHANICAL ISSUE LIGHT NOTIFICATIONS COME UP ON DASH. THE CAR BEGAN LOSING POWER AROUND 75,000 MILES (OIL CHANGES, MAINTENANCE DONE ON TIME)'WHEN ACCELERATING THE CAR WOULD SKIP, JUMP OR ALMOST STALL WHENEVER TRYING TO PULL OUT IN TRAFFIC. CHANGED SPARK PLUGS AT RECOMMENDED MILEAGE (100,000), NO CHANGE. ONE DAY AFTER DRIVING TO THE GAS STATION WHICH IS 4.2 MILES FROM MY HOME & BACK HOME, WHEN MILEAGE WAS AROUND 100,000 (CONVENIENTLY IMMEDIATELY AFTER WARRANTY EXPIRES) MY CARS A/C QUIT WORKING, AND THE CAR RAN INCREDIBLY HOT (WITH ABSOLUTELY NO INDICATION OF ANY ISSUES). I NOTICED MY FEET WERE BURNING UNDER THE DRIVER SIDE DASH (WHILE DRIVING). PULLED OVER, POPPED HOOD-IMMEDIATELY SAW COOLANT RESERVOIR (PLASTIC RESERVOIR) WAS EMPTY, CHECKED OIL DIPSTICK AND NOTHING'NO OIL. 3 DAYS PRIOR TO THIS SITUATION I CHECKED FLUIDS (IN SOUTH GEORGIA DURING THE BE SUMMER IT'S INCREDIBLY HOT & I WAS TAUGHT TO KEEP AN EYE ON OIL/FLUIDS DURING EXTREMELY HOT WEATHER. I HAD AN OIL CHANGE ROUGHLY A MONTH PRIOR TO THIS SITUATION AS WELL. AFTER THIS OVERHEATING PROBLEM WAS RESOLVED, MY A/C NO LONGER COOLED. RECHARGING DID NOTHING'DUE TO THE PERFECT TIMING OF THE WARRANTY EXPIRING THAT LEFT ME WITH NO ALTERNATIVE OTHER THAN ACCEPT MY FATE & THE UNBEARABLE GEORGIA HEAT.

OUR CAR HAD BEEN SITTING IN OUR DRIVEWAY FOR 4 DAYS WHILE WE WERE AWAY ON VACATION. THE MORNING AFTER WE RETURNED WE NOTICED THAT THE SKYLIGHT WAS RAISED AND CRACKED. UPON TOUCHING THE SURFACE OF THE GLASS THE ENTIRE WINDOW IMPLODED INTO VERY SMALL AND UNIFORM PIECES OF GLASS. THE WEATHER WAS COLD (IN THE 20S) DURING THE WEEK, BUT THERE HAD NOT BEEN ANY IMPACT DAMAGE. NO FALLEN BRANCHES OR FLYING ROCKS. THE CAR WAS PARKED IN OUR DRIVEWAY, APPROX 90 FEET FROM THE ROAD. *TR

CPSC: I1530379A. NISSAN JUKE. CONSUMER STATED THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHTS UP INDICATING AIRBAG IS OFF EVEN WHEN SOMEONE IS IN THE SEAT. *LN THE CONSUMER WAS ADVISED TO HAVE THE PASSENGER SIT IN THE BACK SEAT. *JB

PASSENGER AIRBAG WILL TURN OFF WHEN CAR IS IN MOTION OR STATIONARY AND HAS PERSON OF REASONABLE WEIGHT IN IT. I WEIGH 115 POUNDS AND MY HUSBAND WEIGHS 200 POUNDS, THE AIRBAG LIGHT SAYS IT IS OFF WHEN EITHER ONE OF US ARE IN THE SEAT AT RANDOM TIMES. THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAID I JUST DID NOT WEIGH ENOUGH AT 115 POUNDS FOR THE SENSOR TO WORK APPROPRIATELY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN JUKE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH, THE VEHICLE IDLED AT A HIGH RATE BETWEEN GEARS ONE AND TWO. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DEALER, WHO STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS WORKING UP TO SPECIFICATIONS. IN ADDITION, AFTER REFUELING THE VEHICLE, A STRONG FUEL ODOR EMITTED INSIDE THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V683000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE); HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20.

I HAD A HARD ON COLLISION TO THE BACK OF ANOTHER CAR TRAVELING AT WELL OVER 25MPH. MY BODY HIT THE STEERING WHEEL SO HARD THAT MY STERNUM WAS CRACKED D OWN THE MIDDLE. NONE OF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. THEY SHOULD HAVE. IF NOT FOR THE SEAT BELT I WOULD BE DEAD.
