The car keeps shaking. My mechanic did say that Nissan Jukes have a faulty transmission. They did things to my car to try to fix it but I still find it shaking uncontrollably.

My sunroof exploded for no reason. My car was parked in front of my house. Thank goodness I was not driving on the highway I take to go to work everyday. Weather temps were ideal not too hot nor cold. Unknown on how this occurred.

This car is literally failing every year for the past 2 years 9 months. The axel's had to be replaced and the air conditioning had to be fixed just in days of the last repair an engine light came on and that repair was an oxygen sensor (emissions) this was a brand new vehicle with struts problem less than 90 days. The wheels had noise then now wheel axel's problems same as the struts front left and right. This Juke is a lemon and I asked the manufacturer from the first repair that it was something wrong with this Juke 2016. Many case numbers have been placed on this vehicle for major repairs. Unfortunately the manufacturer wants nothing to do with it own vehicle. Shame on you Nissan not worried if your cars are not safe.

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...

Transmission failure 2016 Nissan Juke sl AWD which began day after I bought it. I described this to dealer as "car revs but no acceleration. Initially it would happen after driving on highway for about 1-1.5 hours. Now it begins within the 10 miles it takes to drive to pick up rental car. Three times thus far I have been nearly rear ended, once by a tractor trailer whose wheels I can still hear screeching because the car wouldn't accelerate coming off an exit. The only solution is to stop the car in its 'tracks' to try to get the transmission to catch. I told Nissan dealership where I purchased the car that car isn't safe to drive as well as Nissan. Neither will even acknowledge the issue exists including refusing to view videos I took to demonstrate the issue. I took the car to 3 different Nissan dealerships. One in NY said the issue was being caused by an access, a quart plus overfull, of transmission fluid. The said it would self adjust after 2000-3000 miles. First 300 miles from NY to DC car drove normally. On return trip, same issue, within 1-1.5 hrs transmission started to hesitate, car wouldn't accelerate. Car also has electrical issues which cause console to randomly reset itself. And a nauseating smell that pervades the car which initially was noticed when I turned the heat/defrost on but now sitting here writing this, I can smell the order in my hair; I think it's some sort of exhaust smell. Nissan response to the smell which I initially thought was maybe antifreeze was that "you will smell some antifreeze. You're just sensitive smells". I have no documents to upload other than service records which shows no repairs performed. I literally just texted a friend to borrow money to buy a used a car because the more I drive the car the worse it gets and I fear an accident will ensue causing harm to myself or someone else.
