MY JUKE CAUGHT ON FIRE THIS MORNING! IT ONLY HAS 32,400 MILES ON IT AND I AM LEFT WITH NO CAR AND LITTLE INTEREST FROM NISSAN. I DID SMELL GAS BUT DID NOT THINK MUCH OF IT. MY SON IS ON DIALYSIS 3 DAYS A WEEK AND AT FIRST THE CORPORATION TOLD ME I WOULD BE REIMBURSED FOR A RENTAL CAR FOR THREE DAYS BUT BEFORE THE CALL CONCLUDED THEY CHANGED THEIR MIND TELLING ME IT WAS PENDING DECISION. THERE IS A RECALL ON THE 2011-2012 JUKE FUEL INJECTED ENGINE DUE TO FUEL MAY LEAK FROM THE PRESSURE SENSOR, INCREASING THE RISK OF A FIRE, THAT I WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF. NISSAN IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2011-2012 JUKE, INFINITI QX AND INFINITI M VEHICLES. THE FUEL PRESSURE SENSORS MAY NOT HAVE BEEN TIGHTENED TO THE CORRECT SPECIFICATION. AS A RESULT, THE FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR MAY LOOSEN DUE TO HEAT AND VIBRATION CAUSING FUEL TO LEAK. THEY TRIED TO TELL ME THAT MY CAR WAS ONE THAT HAD ALREADY BEEN FIXED....SO, THEN WHY AM I LEFT WALKING IN THE SUBZERO TEMPERATURES? *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 NISSAN JUKE. THE CONTACT STATED THE ENGINE FAILED AND THE BATTERY DRAINED EXCESSIVELY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 90,000. THE WINDSHIELD MADE A SQUEAKING AND RATTLING NOISE WHEN DRIVING AND GOING OVER BUMPS. IT WAS ALMOST A CONSTANT SOUND. THE ENGINE WOULD IDLE AND SPUTTER, WHEN STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT. WHEN THE CONSUMER ACCELERATED FROM THE LIGHT, THE VEHICLE STALLED. IT WAS DETERMINED THE TIMING CHAIN SNAPPED AND CAUSED DAMAGE TO THE CRANK SPROCKET AND CHAIN. THE TIMES CHAINS, GUIDES, TIMING CHAIN TENSIONER AND CRANK SPROCKET WERE ALL REPLACED. THE VEHICLE STARTED BUT MIS-FIRED DUE TO THE VALVES BEING BENT. THE ENGINE BLOCK WAS THEN REPLACED, DUE TO DAMAGE TO THE VALVE GUIDES AND PISTON TOPS. THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE TO TOWED TO THE DEALER, BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WAS EMITTING BLUE GRAYISH, COLORED SMOKE, AND THEN STALLED. UPDATED 06/18/14

ON JANUARY 18TH, DEALER COMPLETED RECALL NOTICE REPAIR OF FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR. WHEN VEHICLE WAS PICKED UP FROM DEALER THAT WEEKEND, ONLY WENT 2 1/2 MILES AND VEHICLE EXPERIENCED ELECTRICAL FAILURES. ENGINE GETTING FUEL, HOWEVER NO POWER TO TRANSMISSION, STEERING, BRAKES. DEALER STATES ITS THE BATTERY AND REPLACED BATTERY. APPROXIMATELY 25 MILES LATER WE HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME ELECTRICAL FAILURES. STARTING WITH POWER, THEN RADIO, LIGHTS, FANS AND SHIFTING, AND EVENTUALLY TOTAL ENGINE FAILURE. VEHICLE HAS NOW BEEN TOWED TO DEALER AGAIN. *TR

THE SENDING UNIT IN THE FUEL TANK FAILED STRANDING MY 19 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER IN TRAFFIC DURING A STORM WITH VERY POOR VISIBILITY. THIS COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A MULTI-VEHICLE WRECK WITH FATALITIES. LAW ENFORCEMENT ARRIVED AT THE SCENE AND DIRECTED TRAFFIC IN THE RAIN. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND REPAIRS WERE MADE. *TR
