2016 Nissan Juke 1.6L Petrol · FP16 OUD

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a consistent trend of neglect regarding basic consumable upkeep. While the most recent test in January 2026 at 59,261 miles passed, the tester flagged both rear tyres for perished sidewalls and feathered edges. This mirrors an identical advisory from February 2025 at 46,886 miles, indicating that the tyres are aging out rather than wearing out despite the low mileage. The mileage profile is notably low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,000 miles per year. There are significant gaps in usage between May 2022 (25,560 miles) and February 2023 (30,517 miles), where the car covered only 5,000 miles in nine months, followed by a more consistent increase over the subsequent three years. This low-frequency use suggests the car sits for long periods, which often explains the premature perishing of rubber components and sidewalls seen in the recent records. A buyer must personally inspect the front suspension and alignment, as the repeated reports of feathered tyres and uneven wear across the 2022, 2024, and 2025 tests suggest persistent geometry issues or worn suspension bushes. The 2022 report of an engine oil leak also requires a close look at the underbody to ensure the leak has not worsened over the years of inactivity. Given the low mileage, the buyer should also check the brake discs for surface corrosion and seized calipers, which are common in vehicles that are infrequently driven.
