2014 Nisan Juke, 68,772 miles, makes high pitched noise and emits an acrid smell when going up steep mountain interstate highway, it then slows to a stop. No warning lights or high temp readings. Very dangerous to stop and stall on an major interstate. It seems to be a transmission problem. First time it happened, Empire Nissan dealer said it was fine, changed the oil and sent me off. 2nd time, actual breakdown, took it to a local mechanic who said it is probably a lock up, as in Code PO774. Now at different dealer Shomp, they are diagnosing and hopefully fixing it. There is a Class Action Suit about this Juke, CVT litigation, Nissan appears to have extended the warranty.
TIMING CHAIN MALFUNCTION CAUSED OIL LEAK. THE CAR IDLED DOWN AND SHUTS OFF.
TIMING CHAIN RUBBED A HOLE IN THE TIMING COVER CAUSING ENGINE SHUT OFF, OIL LEAK EVERYWHERE ON PASSENGER SIDE AND METAL IN THE OIL. LUCKILY I WAS IN A PARKING LOT WHEN THIS HAPPENED.
TURBO HAS COME APART, WITH NO WARNING! CAR WAS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION BEFORE THIS HAPPENED. THIS SHOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED AND A VERY EXPENSIVE PROBLEM AT THAT!. I'M TAKING A LOAN FOR THE REPAIR SINCE I NEED MY CAR. EVERY NISSAN I'VE PURCHASED BEFORE HAS BEEN VERY DEPENDABLE. I WAS TOLD THIS A BIG PROBLEM WITH THE JUKE AND NEED TO BE RECALLED. PLEASE CONSIDER THE RECALL ON THE JUKE TURBO, I LOVE THIS CAR BUT CAN'T AFFORD ANYTHING ELSE TO HAPPEN. MY CAR HAS BEEN SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY FOR 2 MONTHS, SO I COULD COME UP WITH THE MONEY. MY HUSBAND DIE IN JANUARY 2019 AND MONEY IS VERY LIMITED.
I HAVE NOTICED A STRONG FUEL ODOR WHEN I FIRST START THE CAR FOR THE PAST FEW WEEKS. EVIDENTLY IT IS A LEAKING FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR. IT APPEARS THERE IS ALREADY A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM (UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID:14V683000), BUT MY SPECIFIC VIN IS NOT INCLUDED. I HAVE JUST OVER 60K MILES.
WHILE DRIVING THE STOPPED. IT MADE A RIDDLE NOISE WHEN STARTED. OIL LEAKS BETWEEN THE ENGINE SEAL IS LEAKING. 2014 NISSAN JUKE WITH 83000 MILES IT'S NOT FAIR TO BURN MY MONEY LIKE THAT.
