2011 Nissan Juke Speed Control & Cruise Problems

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 NISSAN JUKE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ENGINE WAS IDLING LOW. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO, INITIALLY, WAS UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE FAILURE. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER, IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TURBO CHARGER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER AND THE DEALER INDICATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS EXCLUDED FROM A MANUFACTURER RECALL AND PROVIDED NO SOLUTION. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 56,000.

SEVERAL TIMES MY 2011 NISSAN JUKE SL AWD HAS LOST SIGNIFICANT POWER. EVERY TIME IT HAPPENED SPEED DROPPED TO APPROX. 20MPH. THESE WERE ALSO ON INTERSTATE DRIVES WHERE QUICK DECELERATION IS VERY DANGEROUS. IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT NISSAN DID RECALL JUKES WITH THE SAME ISSUE BUT MY VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED. I HAVE READ MANY COMPLAINTS ON, THE INTERNET, ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM AND THOSE PEOPLE WERE NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. I WOULD APPRECIATE CONSIDERATION OF INVESTIGATION INTO POSSIBLE EXTENSION OF THE RECALL. THANK YOU.

I HAVE A 2011 NISSAN JUKE ( PURCHASED BRAND NEW) WHEN DRIVING HOME FROM WORK THE CAR STARTED TO IDLE WEIRD AND THEN JUST DIED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. THANK GOD I WASN'T HIT BY ANYONE OR IN A MAJOR ACCIDENT. TOWED IT A TO NISSAN DEALERSHIP WHERE THERE TOLD ME THE TIMING CHAIN BELT BROKE AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALERSHIP CALLED ME THE NEXT MORNING STATING THAT NISSAN WAS AWARE OF THE TIMING CHAIN ISSUE AND THAT THEY WERE ISSUING A RECALL FOR THIS VERY PROBLEM, SO THERE WOULD BE NO COST TO ME. AFTER A WEEK OF MY CAR BEING AT THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP, THEY CALLED AND SAID THE CAR WAS REPAIRED AND GOOD TO GO! I PICKED THE CAR UP AND ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE HOME BUT NEVER MADE IT OUT OF THE PARKING LOT! JUKE DID THE SAME EXACT THING IT DID WHEN I ORIGINALLY HAD IT TOWED IN! THE JUKE WENT BACK INTO THE SHOP THAT NIGHT. NEXT MORNING THE SERVICE MANAGER FROM NISSAN CALLS TO TELL ME THAT DUE TO THE TIMING CHAIN ISSUE METAL SHAVING HAVE NOW GOTTEN INTO MY ENGINE CAUSING DAMAGE TO THE POINT THAT THE ENTIRE ENGINE HAS TO BE REPLACED! SINCE IT WAS DUE TO THE RECALL, IT WILL BE OF NO COST TO ME...HOWEVER NISSAN CANNOT GUARANTEE THAT THE NEW ENGINE WON'T HAVE THE SAME ISSUES?!!? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? AND THIS IS NOT THE FIRST ISSUE WITH THIS JUKE! FIRST MONTH I HAD IT THE ENTIRE REAR DIFFERENTIAL HAD TO BE REPLACED! I ALSO HAD TO REPLACE THE ALTERNATOR AFTER IT FAILED.....PLUS NUMEROUS BATTERY ISSUES, AND THE CAR IS LESS THAN 3 YEARS OLD! AFTER FURTHER RESEARCH I FOUND OUT THERE IS A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT AGAINST NISSAN RIGHT NOW AS THEY WERE AWARE OF THESE ISSUES AND DID NOTHING ABOUT IT! HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE? OR LEGAL? COME ON, NISSAN! GET IT TOGETHER. SAFETY SHOULD BE YOUR #1 PRIORITY....BUT APPARENTLY CONCEALING POTENTIALLY LIFE THREATENING RECALLS IS MORE IMPORTANT. TO SAY THE LEAST, I WILL NEVER, EVER, BUY ANOTHER NISSAN, AND NEITHER SHOULD YOU OR ANYONE YOU CARE ABOUT. *TR
