What 57 owners told NHTSA about the 2014 Nissan Juke

I was involved in a serious crash in a 2014 Nissan Juke. The vehicle broke through a fence, traveled downhill, and rolled multiple times before coming to rest upside down. The crash caused severe structural damage: Roof crushed down to seat level Windshield shattered Rear of vehicle pushed into back seat Door panels detached Despite the severity of the rollover and final inverted position, no airbags deployed, including side curtain airbags. I was wearing my seatbelt and sustained ongoing nerve damage and pain. Given the rollover nature of the crash and severity of intrusion, I am concerned that the airbag system may have failed to deploy properly.

A couple of weeks ago on my way home from school I could smell something burning. I stopped my car and started looking around to find that the front passengers seat was smoldering and burning a hole in my backpack, toque and the seat itself. The seat warmer switch was in the off position. My dad has since disconnected the wiring to the seat warmers on both drivers and passenger sides. This seems to be a safety issue. Has there been other complaints like this for these vehicles? We have not been to the dealer, we have contacted Nissan and were told the following "Your vehicle is out of warranty and therefore is not our problem" The car has 170,000 kms on it but this is a safety issue not a warranty complaint.

CAR RAN A STOP SIGN AND I BROAD SIDED HER AT 30 MILES AN HOU IN MY 2014 NISSAN JUKE. SHE WAS GOING 30MILES AN HOUR TOO TOO. THE FRONT AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY. NISSAN INSPECTED THE CAR AND SAID THAT EVERYTHING WORKED FINE. I HAVE A CRACKED STERNUM AND TWO BADLY BRUISE KNEES. I WANT YOU TO INVESTIGATE THIS CRASH AS MY DAUGHTER IS DRIVING A 2012 NISSAN JUKE AND IT MAY HAVE THE SAME FAULTY AIRBAG,

MY JUKE HAS BEEN DECECLERATING WHILE IN HIGHWAY DOING 75MPH AND HAS BEEN JUMPING GEARS WHICH ALL HAD BEEN A PROBLEM SINCE PURCHASING THE CAR AND WAS NOT FOUND UNTIL TODAY THAT THE ENTIRE VALVE BODY CONTROL IN THE TRANSMISSION WHICH CONTROLS CVT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLED AS MY CAR IS 4 YEARS OLD AND SHOULD NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM WITH LESS THEN 130000 MILES. I HAD EXTENDED WARRANTY UNTIL 120000 AND CONTINUOUSLY REPORTED THIS TO DEALERSHIP DURING EACH SERVICE WHICH THEY NEVER COULD DIAGNOSE AND FOUND TODAY TELLING ME THE COST TO FIX IT AND REPLACE AND RESOLVE THESE ISSUES IS OVER $1800. MY JUKE HAS HAD SEVERAL PROBLEMS ON TOP OF THESE ISSUES ALL TO DO WITH SAFETY OVER THE YEARS AND SEVERAL SIMILAR COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN REPORTED AND NOT RECALLED BY NISSAN WHICH IS UNACCEPTABLE, UNSAFE, AND A LEGAL ISSUE WHICH I WILL POSSIBLY BE PURSUING DUE TO THE SEVERAL ACCIDENTS I HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCED THROUGHOUT THE YEARS WHICH THESE PROBLEMS WERE ALSO PRESENT AND NOT RESOLVED DUE TO NO SAFETY RECALLS BEING ON FILE WITH NISSAN. MY CAR HAS ALSO SHUT OFF TWICE WHILE IN TRAFFIC AND STOPPED ACCELERATING ON HIGHWAY SEVERAL TIMES ALMOST CAUSING ACCIDENTS. OTHER OWNERS HAVE REPORTED THESE SAME ISSUES AND NO RECALLS HAVE BEEN DONE ALTHOUGH THE JUKE ALSO STOPPED BEING MADE IN 2015 RIGHT AFTER I PURCHASED MINE BRAND NEW. I HAVE KEPT UP ON ALL ROUTINE MAINTENANCE THROUGHOUT THE YEARS AND FEES THAT THESE ISSUES ARE UNACCEPTABLE, UNSAFE, AND ALL WHICH I WILL BE REPORTING TO BETTER BUSINESS HERESY, NISSAN, AND EXPLORING LEGAL CASE IF NISSAN DOES NOT LOOK INTO RECALLING THESE SEVERAL SAFETY HAZARDS ON THE 2014-2015 JUKES, INCLUDING MY JUKE. I WANT A RESOLUTION AND NOT TO HAVE TO PAY FOR THESE SAFETY CONCERNS THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLED AND RESOLVED AND STILL HAVE NOT BEEN TO THIS DATE OF TODAY WHERE ISSUE WAS IDENTIFIED, SEE ATTACHMENT.
