I bought this car slightly used and I have had trouble with it since LITERALLY day one. It’s broken down on me several times which is unfortunate considering the reason I bought this and got rid of my old car was so I could feel comfortable and confident when traveling longer distances. I swear I have had to have this car look at by mechanics at least 12 times in the past 2 years since I got it, and almost every single time it has needed something replaced—including a new transmission, axel, etc. My warranty just recently expired and I started having trouble with it on 285 and 75/85–both of which are busy highways in Atlanta—so I take it in for the 12th time and whatdoyaknow it needs a new rear differential which would cost me $3150 (according to Nissan dealership). I just graduated college. I can’t afford this so now, not only am I underwater on this vehicle because it has lost its value so quickly but I also now am making payments on a car I can’t even drive. Maybe mine is a lemon (who knows—bought it from CarMax by the way) but nonetheless I am being screwed over by just careless/poor manufacturing. Sad excuse for a vehicle.

Love my Juke

Perfect! It has great gas mileage, enough room, sharp looking, great on winter roads and sporty looking. Easy to handle & affordable. Love that the back seats fold down.

Love the Juke, handles great and is a peppy

Fast 4 cylinder SUV, handles great, excellent turning radius. Plenty of room up front but small back seating. I love the look of the Juke.

Very reliable and fun daily driver

I bought my Juke Nismo brand new in 2013. Put 50k on it and plan to take it to 200k. It run flawlessly even with regular(87octane) gas most of the time. It is very efficient and handles very well. I even try one winter with awd lock everyday. No issue at all. I've been very please with the Juke but there is one fatal flaw with the Juke. And that is the fact that the Jukes cargo space is very limited. You really pay for the handling in that department. It's more of a daily driver to work and back than 2 kids and a stroller. But for anything else, the Juke is a joy; you just need to get used to its suspension if you're going for a nismo.

Loved my Juke the speed, and just the stylish look

My Juke met all my needs, the performance was awesome. People always ask me about my car, I only have good things to say. It's unfortunate, that Nissan will longer produce the Juke. I love the car so much I just traded in my 2013 for a 2016 Juke.

I have loved this car ever since I first drove it.

This car is reliable, fun, sporty and zips along. Great sound system and even more fun with the sun roof. It is very well taken care of and I am sorry to have to sell it.
