I've owned my 2012 Juke SL for a little over a year. I can say, honestly, it was a great purchase. Not once have I need to take it in for repairs other than oil changes. it's smaller gas tank size is made up by great MPG. One thing that is noticeable is the handling, grips the road very well with easy, quick and tight turns. My only warning is limited storage throughout the whole vehicle. It has two cup holders and a very tiny cubby to put stuff and that is it, literally. This is sadly, the only reason I'm looking at a new vehicle. The storage space just isn't there. Hope this helps!

Im absolutely satisfied with this car nissan did a really good job on it. At the first time I did not fell in love with the car but when I went to the dealer to test drive an altima, I checked the car more closely, and I love it the features, inside the car and outside he car are awesome, looks sporty, small, and good looking if you like different things, it is roomier enough to have 5 people and a trunk space free to load it up. If you want to get this car get the SV trim with navigation, AWD and if is possible black/red interior, and it is not going to cost you to much. Mine is black in the outside and red interior and it looks extremely cool.

Juke owners seem to mostly be in agreement that their cars are not getting the mpg numbers that were advertised. Mine should be getting 30mpg highway and it it does well to get to 23.5. MANY other auto makers have had models with this problem and they have compensated owners for the problem. WHY is Nissan refusing? Dealerships I've spoken to say they get regular complaints about the Juke mpg; the internet is loaded with customer compaints. I was advised to call the 1-800-Nissan1 by my dealership to try to get some compensation. When I called, I was told that there is NOTHING offered to resolve this problem.

LOVE my little Pumbaa!

When I got my certified pre owned 2012 Nissan Juke (Pumbaa) he was 1 yrs old(2013). I have been in love since the day I purchased him. If you've already done the math, you're right it's been 7 great years. As with any car if you take care of it it will take care of you. (getting you from point A to point B and anywhere in between) Meaning, make sure you follow the manufacturer recommendations i.e. oil changes, tire rotations, systems updated etc. And if there are recalls it is to your advantage to take heed and take it to the dealer for FREE repairs, because if you ignore it and there's problems you could possibly have a chain of problems that could've been avoided had ya just taken it to the dealer and got your FREE repair. With that being said, I can proudly say I haven't had any issues with my 2012 Juke. Also I'd like to note that I have driven it to California twice and it was an easy ride. It had get up when I needed to get going, I could get in and out of tight spots when I needed to and I could enjoy a nice cruse when I wanted to enjoy the scenery. I live in the west so I don't have snow and all that other jazz to worry about BUT there is the HEAT(phew) And as some of the other owners mentioned the space IS tight, cramped, small and there is no storage space BUT I like that even more. For me that meant, no unwanted passengers, no trash left behind(so I have to keep my space clean) and just enough trunk space if I have something over-sized (good thing the seats fold down- and wallah! more space) I'm not tall so leg room isn't a problem for me. I was so sad to find out Nissan no longer makes the Juke in the united states, I definitely would've upgraded. All in all I do recommend the Nissan Juke if you have the opportunity to purchase one, newer then a 2012 or a 2012 go ahead and try one. Have fun driving your JUKE! Be safe and healthy out there y'all!!!

Have had this car for about two months now. I purchased this auto because it is very easy to steer and also has the AWD feature. It is very easy to maneuver & park. The turbo really provides bursts of energy, especially when using the "Sport" mode. I am getting around 29 to 31 MPG in town. Haven't yet taken it on a long drive, but figure I will get more MPG using the "economy" mode. I love the looks, the handling, & the weight of it. I was looking to replace a 2000 VW Beetle. Interior could be nicer, but it does have heated seats. They need to add an "auto down" button for passenger seat and add electric adjustable driver's seat. I wanted something quick and nimble & easy to drive.
