2016 Nissan Juke 1.5L Diesel · DP65 RVJ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift from clean inspections to emerging mechanical wear. The most recent test in May 2026 at 90,750 miles identified an advisory for slight play in the nearside front suspension arm ball joint. This marks a departure from the clean record seen in 2024, indicating that suspension components are beginning to reach the end of their operational life through age. The mileage pattern is consistent with a typical-use vehicle, averaging approximately 9,000 miles per year over the ten-year period. Between August 2022 and May 2026, the car covered 26,132 miles, representing a steady usage rate. There are no significant gaps in the testing history to suggest the vehicle sat stationary for long periods, nor is there any rapid accumulation of mileage that would indicate undue stress on the drivetrain or braking systems. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension geometry and tyre alignment, as the history reveals a recurring issue with uneven wear. Records from July 2023 at 71,347 miles flagged both rear tyres as worn to the legal limit and on the edge, while the June 2025 test at 83,803 miles noted a similar nearside front issue. These faults suggest a potential wheel alignment problem or worn ball joints that are causing premature tyre degradation. The recent advisory on the nearside front ball joint requires immediate attention to prevent component failure or further damage to the steering assembly.
