NHTSA Complaint #10763505 — 2013 NISSAN JUKE

WHILE PARKED IN OUR DRIVEWAY FOR MORE THAN 30 HRS, MY 2013 JUKE BURST INTO FLAMES. THE FIRE DEPT DID NOT FIND ANY EVIDENCE OF ARSON OR TAMPERING AND THERE WAS NO WEATHER OCCURRENCE TO EXPLAIN WHY IT BECAME ENGULFED IN FLAMES. THE FIRE STARTED IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AT 12:40AM. NISSAN HAS SAID THAT THEY EXAMINED THE CAR AND THEIR TECHNICAL SPECIALIST FOUND " NO EVIDENCE OF A PRODUCT PROBLEM, FAILURE, OR MALFUNCTION THAT MAY HAVE CAUSED OR CONTRIBUTED TO THIS INCIDENT". NISSAN WILL NOT TELL ME WHY THE CAR BURNED UP, JUST THEY'RE NOT RESPONSIBLE. WHY WOULD A LOW MILAGE, WELL MAINTAINED VEHICLE CATCH FIRE UNLESS THERE WAS SOME KIND OF PRODUCT FAILURE? I WAS LUCKY THAT ONLY PROPERTY WAS DAMAGED BUT I FEEL NISSAN USA IS NOT TAKING THE INCIDENT SERIOUSLY.
