2015 Nissan Juke 1.5L Diesel · WO64 AEA

The 2015 Nissan Juke's roadworthiness shows a deteriorating maintenance trend, despite passing its most recent MOT on 2025-08-14 at 79,179 miles. While the test was successful, multiple advisories highlight ongoing concerns: worn nearside front tyre with exposed ply, thin front brake pads, slight play in the anti-roll bar linkage, and fluctuating brake performance. These issues mirror those from the 2024 test, indicating unresolved wear on critical components. The 2024-08-08 failure, which cited excessively worn suspension ball joints and severely perished tyres, further underscores a pattern of deferred maintenance. The 2023-08-17 failure over missing wheel fixing and worn ball joints, followed by a clean 2023-08-23 pass, suggests intermittent neglect rather than consistent care. Mileage progression aligns with the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 7,198 miles annually over 11 years. The recorded 79,179 miles reflect a reasonable usage pattern, though the 2023-to-2025 increase of 9,556 miles over two years is slightly above average. No significant gaps in MOT coverage exist, but the recurring failures in 2023 and 2024 suggest periods where mechanical issues were either ignored or inadequately addressed between tests. Prospective buyers must prioritise inspection of the suspension and braking systems. The persistent wear on front suspension ball joints and anti-roll bar linkages, coupled with fluctuating brake performance, signals potential safety risks requiring immediate attention. Tyre condition is critical, with documented cracking, ply exposure, and tread depth below legal limits. The offside rear tyre's perishing also warrants scrutiny for structural integrity. Additionally, the brake pads' consistent thinning across tests indicates they may require replacement soon. While no structural corrosion was reported, the recurring tyre and suspension issues suggest the vehicle may have experienced uneven or insufficient maintenance, necessitating a thorough in-person assessment of these components.
