Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“My 2017 awd JUKE has only 16,000 miles on it and already needs the front tires replaced. The back tires look almost new. I took it in to have the tires rotated and was told they are too worn to rotate and would need to buy 4 new tires. The other problem is the car would not start sometimes. It is push button start. I noticed the green key light flashing on the dash. After reading the manuel, I replaced the battery in the fob. That did not rectify the problem. The brake pedal will not engage to start the car. …”

“The break sensor is faulty on jukes. Your vehicle will be in park but the car is not registering this, thus you can not turn the car on without jiggling the wires that lead to the break sensor. Have had the sensor replaced before and this still continues to happen.”
