2010 Nissan Juke 1.6L Petrol · FE60 AXM

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history shows a worsening trend regarding suspension and brake-related wear. The most recent test in December 2025 at 80,927 miles flagged multiple advisories related to the front-end geometry and braking system. While the vehicle passed, the recurring appearance of deteriorating rubber dust covers and worn suspension components suggests that the mechanical linkages are reaching the end of their functional life due to age rather than high-mileage. At 80,927 miles, this 2010 model reflects exceptionally low mileage, averaging approximately 5,000 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with only roughly 4,400 miles covered between the November 2023 and December 2025 tests. However, the low mileage has not prevented the natural degradation of rubber-based parts and metal surfaces, as evidenced by the persistent failures of ball joint dust covers and wishbone bushes which have appeared across multiple testing years despite the low distance traveled. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension assembly. The record indicates ongoing issues with the nearside front suspension arm ball joint dust cover and the offside front track rod end, both of which show signs of deterioration or play. The buyer should also examine the offside front wishbone rear bush, as this component was flagged as worn in 2023 and 2024. Failure to address these components will likely lead to poor steering precision and uneven tyre wear. The braking system requires immediate attention. The tester noted thin rear brake pads in both 2024 and 2025, along with pitted and scored rear brake discs in the most recent inspection. Additionally, the front tyres were noted as worn close to the legal limit and specifically on the edges, which often indicates an alignment issue stemming from the worn bushes. Given the age of the vehicle, an inspector should also check for structural corrosion on the underbody to ensure the low mileage has not masked hidden rust-related issues.
