Engine Belts And Pulleys problems of the 2013 Nissan Juke

I have a timing belt noise that my mechanic says is from a manufacturing issue. Nissan refuses to comp a diagnostic at the dealership. I should not have to pay for a diagnostic or the repair if it is manufacturing, which my research tells me it probably is. Nissan customer service hung up on me.

Tl the contact owns a 2013 Nissan Juke. While driving 55 mph, the vehicle decelerated without warning. The vehicle was towed to pine belt Nissan of toms river (located at 229-245 NJ-37, toms river, NJ) where it was diagnosed that the timing chain was defective and the engine needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was referred to NHTSA. The contact was informed that NHTSA chose which vins were included in a recall. The failure mileage was approximately 62,000.

While traveling at 55mph on the highway, heard a clunk from the engine compartment and loss of propulsion power with an dry gear noise. Turned off the car and the next day it ran smooth down a street until I accelerated to get on a highway. The same noise appeared accompanying a check engine light and immediate reduction of acceleration while attempting to make a right turn. Turbo boost fault was recorded in the ecu. Took it in for service and the result was the turbo came apart. Dealer said they never seen a turbo apart with no signs of improper maintenance. Service bulletin NHTSA 10109203 and TSB ntb16-035a has talks about an engine cooling system turbocharger service. Oil line replacement required with turbocharger service. The turbocharger part number has been rescinded and replaced with a newer model. The dealer informed me that the car is unsafe to drive as the internal turbo components can come loose and damage the engine. This vehicle has had the NHTSA campaign number: 14v683000 recall completed. And a manufactures recall to replace the timing belt. If this issue were to happen when crossing a highway with traffic, the safe distance can be significantly reduced to the lack of acceleration power.

The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Juke. While driving at an unknown speed, an abnormal noise emitted under the hood of the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that sludge was on the motor and the timing belt separated from the engine. The technician advised that the motor and timing belt needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 76,000.
