I have liked the look of the Juke since I first saw it in 2011. Have had mine now for almost 2 months. I average 29.2 mpg in economy mode, which blows my jeep out the water. Sport mode is addictive. The ride is comfortable, I love all the bells and whistles. It handles well, responds to steering and foot pedals quickly. It is fun to drive, the reaction of a sports car with the safety of an SUV. There is not a lot of cargo room, but enough for a trip to the grocery store. Drop the seats down and lots of room.

I love my Juke. I was looking for a unique, sporty, AWD for my new car and found all that and more in my new Juke. We already have a minivan, so the small spaces of the Juke are not an issue. Fun, responsive, eye catching. Most of the controls are intuitive and the "manual" CVT option actually works pretty well, giving the driver real control over the power. It has been a reliable, fun and enjoyable car.

I loved loved my juke until around 100k miles. The timing chain broke ( mine was not on the recall list.) While replacing my engine they found a crack in my turbo. Nissan said this was a common problem for this car.

I'm very happy with my Juke. Yes, it's small and has limited cargo space. Well, I wanted a small car and the cargo space for what I haul has never been too small. The performance is fine. My mileage is lower than some report, but I don't drive for economy. Yes, the road-handling is very good for this type of vehicle. Sold Juke, now own a Hyundai Kona that I like and is more modern

I wanted to love this car so bad

I bought my Juke used about 8 months ago and was incredibly excited. I loved its unique look and after reading up on it, it seemed to be a pretty reliable car all around. Boy was I disappointed 8 months later. 1st major issue, not even 2 weeks after driving it off the lot it started stalling- turned out to be a radiator issue. No big deal, the dealership was helpful in getting it taken care of and it continued to drive fine afterwards. Now after fixing the radiator I noticed a slight rattle on the highway. I didn't think much of it but it continued to worsen for a good few months before I decided I needed to get it checked out- turns out the axles had rapidly deteriorated and needed to be replaced. A hefty $1000 replacement later, its driving smoothly again. Not even a month later the service engine light comes on. I had the code read this morning and it turns out there is some problem that could range from as simple as a loose wire to a transmission issue that I won't be able to get checked out until Monday (It's new years eve as I write this). Again, I so wanted to love this car. I'm not sure if I just bought a dud or if the Juke is just not made to withstand my frequency of driving. My recommendation: buy at your own risk. It's a cute car, without a doubt, but if you drive frequently, you might just find yourself making monthly payments via maintenance even if you paid in cash.
