2015 Nissan Juke 1.2L Petrol · RO15 OMP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a worsening condition regarding front suspension components. While the most recent test in June 2026 at 80,095 miles passed, the tester identified play in the nearside front suspension arm ball joint and wishbone bush. This represents a progression from the issues noted in June 2024, where the nearside suspension bush was flagged as worn and a track rod end showed excessive play. The mileage pattern remains consistent with an 11-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,300 miles per year. Between May 2023 at 54,880 miles and June 2024 at 63,976 miles, the car covered 9,096 miles, showing a slight increase in usage. The subsequent 7,719 miles covered between the June 2024 and June 2026 tests suggest steady, low-intensity use, which explains the gradual degradation of rubber-mounted bushes and mechanical joints. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension to assess the extent of the wear on the wishbones and joints. The history indicates recurring failures in the nearside front assembly, suggesting that these components are reaching the end of their service life simultaneously. Additionally, the offside rear brake pads were noted as thin in June 2024; these should be checked for remaining thickness to ensure they were replaced following the initial failure.
