Quick summary
Total: 27,116 cars
The 2012 Nissan Juke has an overall defect rate of 298 defects per 100 vehicles, which is 21.2% higher than the average for cars of the same year, recorded at 246 defects per 100. Notably, the Juke performs better in the body and structure category, showing a significantly lower defect rate compared to its peers. However, it faces considerable issues with brakes, steering, and various equipment, all of which are notably higher than the average. As mileage increases, defect rates also rise, particularly in the higher mileage categories, suggesting that older vehicles are more prone to issues. Overall, while the Juke excels in body integrity, it struggles with critical safety components.
