Quick summary

Total: 20,509 cars

The 2021 Nissan Juke shows an overall defect rate of 59 per 100 vehicles, which is significantly lower than the average of 79 per 100, marking a 25% improvement. Notably, the Juke performs exceptionally well in categories such as brakes, steering, and lights, with defect rates well below the average. However, it faces challenges in the equipment category, where its defect rate is higher than average. The data also indicates that younger vehicles, particularly those under 31,000 miles, have a higher defect rate compared to the overall average for this age group, suggesting some inconsistency in early vehicle performance.
