NHTSA Complaint #11142776 — 2016 NISSAN JUKE

THE JUKE HAS HAD INTERMITTENT STALLING AND NO START ISSUES. THE CAR HAS STALLED WHILE IN MOTION AS WELL AS PARKED AT IDLE. ONCE IT STALLS, IT WILL NOT IMMEDIATELY START AGAIN. THE DEALER HAS BEEN UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE, DESPITE HAVING TO PAY FOR TOWING SEVERAL TIMES. THE LOCAL ABC AFFILIATE HAS DONE AT LEAST TWO REPORTS OF OTHER NISSAN OWNER EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM ELUDING TO A HEAT RELATED ISSUE. IF THAT IS TRUE, THE TEMPERATURE IS COOLING OFF HERE IN THE DESERT I'M AFRAID I WILL NOT SEE THIS PROBLEM UNTIL SPRING AND THE WARRANTY EXPIRES. NISSAN HAS REFUSED TO REPURCHASE THE CAR TO THIS POINT. WITHOUT MY AGREEMENT, THEY HAVE OPENED AN ARBITRATION CASE OFFERING ME $1500 "FOR MY INCONVENIENCE". THE CAR HAS LOST MORE IN TRADE-IN VALUE THAN WHAT THEY'VE OFFERED..GOING THROUGH MINIMAL CARFAX REPORTS ON JUKES, I'VE FOUND A HIGH PERCENTAGE OF JUKES WITH SIMILAR PROBLEMS. .*BF. *TR *DT *JB *DT*JB
