2014 Nissan Juke 1.5L Diesel · AF63 LWN

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history indicates a worsening trend regarding deferred suspension and consumable repairs. While the most recent test in September 2025 at 85,647 miles passed, the tester flagged a dangerously worn offside front inner tyre and a severely deteriorated ball joint dust cover. This follows a pattern seen in September 2024 where multiple tyres and thinning brake pads were noted, suggesting that the owner only addresses faults once they reach the MOT failure threshold. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 7,100 miles per year. There is a notable gap of over 11,000 miles between October 2023 and September 2024, followed by another 9,500-mile interval leading to the latest test. The failure in October 2023 at 64,479 miles due to a leaking injector seal and critical suspension arm failure indicates that the vehicle undergoes mechanical stress, yet the low mileage does not mask neglect of preventative maintenance between inspections. A buyer must conduct a close inspection of the front suspension geometry, as the nearside front lower suspension arm ball joint dust cover has appeared on two consecutive tests in 2024 and 2025. This recurring issue suggests an ongoing risk of component failure. The corroded offside front coil spring from the 2024 record should be visually inspected for structural fractures near the mounting point. Given the repeated reports of uneven tyre wear on the edges, a professional alignment check is essential to prevent further premature degradation of new rubber.
