2016 Nissan Juke 1.6L Petrol · DT65 RBV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history reveals a recurring trend of deferred suspension and lighting repairs. While it passed its latest test in December 2025 at 101,758 miles, it failed immediately due to play in the offside front steering rack inner joint and a low headlamp aim. This follows a failure in December 2024 for a worn offside front track rod end ball joint. The persistence of steering geometry issues suggests the previous owner only addresses faults once they fail inspection rather than performing preventative maintenance on worn mechanical components. The mileage profile is consistent with a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per annum. Between February 2024 and December 2024, the car covered 6,518 miles, indicating relatively active use. The subsequent 4,160 miles recorded between December 2024 and December 2025 show a similar usage pattern. This consistent mileage generally means the components have been subjected to regular cycles, which explains the gradual wear on suspension bushes and brake hardware noted in the record. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension and steering assembly. The record specifically flagged play in the steering rack inner joints, track rod ends, and an offside front suspension arm bush. These should be checked for excessive movement to ensure they were actually replaced and are not continuing to degrade. Furthermore, the February 2024 test noted corrosion on both the offside front and rear brake pipes, covered in grease. An inspector should verify that this corrosion is merely surface-level and not deep structural thinning, which could lead to a hydraulic failure if left ignored.
