2019 Nissan Juke 1.5L Diesel · NG19 DYA

The vehicle failed its most recent MOT on 2026-02-23 at 59,242 miles, meaning it is currently not roadworthy. The failure stems from two severely damaged rear tyres and a corroded offside front brake pipe—issues that had also appeared as advisories in the same test—indicating a clear worsening trend rather than stable or improving condition. The fact that the same suspension bush wear and brake pipe corrosion were flagged twice in quick succession suggests these problems were known but not addressed. Mileage rose by just 1,450 miles between February 2025 and February 2026, then jumped by 14,751 miles in the following year to reach 59,242 miles by February 2026. This abrupt increase implies either a period of low usage followed by heavy recent driving, or possibly inconsistent logging. The gap between the February 2024 and February 2025 tests is consistent with annual testing, but the jump in mileage between 2024 and 2025 (17,161 miles) is higher than average for the model’s age and may have accelerated wear on braking and suspension components. A buyer should pay close attention to the front suspension bushes and lower arm pins, which have been flagged as worn twice in the last two tests without excessive movement yet—this could escalate to a failure if movement develops. The offside front brake pipe’s corrosion, already noted as a failure reason, needs urgent inspection for further deterioration or leakage. Rear tyres are a critical concern: one has a deep cut exposing the ply, and the other shows perishing—both require immediate replacement. Given the repeated brake disc wear advisory and prior pad thickness failure in 2024, a full brake system check—including calipers, discs, and pads—is strongly advised before purchase.
