Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2011 model year cars.
- Xtronic CVT FailureSerious
Early Jatco CVT cars can whine, flare and eventually lose drive if fluid changes have been ignored or the transmission has spent its life in town traffic.
- Front Top Mount and Drop-Link WearModerate
The Juke’s firm setup and UK roads mean front top mounts and drop links often start knocking or creaking well before major mileage.
- Air-Conditioning Condenser CorrosionModerate
The condenser sits in a vulnerable position behind the grille and often corrodes or gets stone-damaged, leaving the air conditioning weak or completely inoperative.
