2013 Nissan Juke 1.5L Diesel · YY63 WVO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history reveals a worsening trend regarding front suspension and steering components. While it passed its most recent test in July 2025 at 105,797 miles, the tester identified multiple new defects that were not present in previous years. Specifically, the appearance of play in the nearside front anti-roll bar linkage, the suspension arm pin or bush, and the front suspension arm ball joint indicates a progressive degradation of the front-end assembly that has not yet been adequately addressed by the owner. The mileage pattern is consistent with a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,100 miles per year. There was a significant jump of over 10,000 miles between July 2023 (89,236 miles) and July 2024 (99,340 miles), followed by another 6,400 miles leading into the July 2025 test. This steady usage suggests regular annual driving, which explains the consistent wear and tear on rubber components and mechanical joints seen throughout the advisory notes. A buyer must prioritise a thorough physical inspection of the steering and suspension system. Recurring faults in the steering rack inner joints and track rod ends have persisted since 2023, suggesting a long-term issue with the steering geometry or component fatigue. The uneven wear on the inner edges of the rear tyres noted in 2024 indicates a potential alignment problem or worn rear bushes that requires verification to prevent premature tyre replacement. Additionally, the deteriorating registration plate and perishing tyres suggest that minor cosmetic and safety-related maintenance is frequently deferred.
