Car would at times not start up again after running an errand or trip, at first we could jump start the vehicle but later it wouldn't work that way, new battery new starter, alternator replaced nothing worked finally wouldn't start at all machanic found a short in the fuse box he couldn't replace it had to be done at a dealership garage 1200 dollars later everything seems to be working right.
We purchased a brand new Nissan Juke 2013, including a maintenance and service contract. Over the past 3 years the Nissan Juke has refused to start dozens of times. We are petrified that it will stop running while we drive it. Often it will not even start with jumper cables. Despite having the Juke in and out of the Nissan dealership shop over the last three years, Nissan has been completely unable to determine and fix the defect. Each time Nissan simply charges the battery, or replaces it. On at least 8 separate occasions Nissan has cleared the Juke as ok to drive, only to have it fail to start within several months. We have been stranded many times, and now carry jumper cables and 2 hand held power starters, though these often fail to start the car. We do not want to resell this vehicle on the used market to unsuspecting consumers since the Juke in its defective condition is clearly a serious hazard to users and others on the road. We asked Nissan on April 12, 2017 to repurchase the vehicle, but they refused by letter dated April 21, 2017 since our lemon law only protects buyers for 20 months from purchase. We have a complete spreadsheet with attached invoices with complete details of all Nissan's attempts to fix the Juke and their excuses. This Nissan Juke has been the most unreliable and dangerous car we have ever owned, and Nissan's failure to adequately fix this defective car over the past 3 years has been shameful. This vehicle should be taken off the road before someone gets killed. While we were able to upload the spreadsheet, the exhibits were too large, and can be emailed on request.
