I wanted more up-to-date car reliability information that included actual repair rates. So in late 2005 I started getting people together to make this possible. TrueDelta now updates actual repair frequencies, not just dots, four times a year, to report on new models quickly then track cars closely as they age.

Thanks to the support of AZHitman and this forum, for which I'm very grateful, we've had excellent participation by Nissan owners. I'd like to have results for the Juke as soon as possible--just a matter of getting enough owners involved.

Participants simply report repairs the month after they occur on a one-page survey. When there are no repairs, they simply report an approximate odometer reading four times a year, at the end of each quarter.

To encourage participation, participants receive full access to all results, not just those for the Juke, for free. Results for the Juke will be posted to this thread.

I'm in. Being one of the first, maybe the first, in my state I'm almost obligated to help.

You were the first to sign up for the survey with the Juke, though are no longer the only. If the past is any indication, we'll soon have many more, and could have some initial stats as soon as February.

Thanks for leading the way!

Seven owners now signed up. A good start, but more remain needed to provide stats on the JUKE.

As a technician, I could post what I see as issues or problems if that will help. So far we have only had one come in for other than regular service.

Okay, I'm in!

Thanks, I certainly appreciate it.

Fourteen owners signed up so far. A good start, but more will be needed to provide reliability stats.

We have some new pages that display all reported repairs by problem area:

2011 Nissan JUKE problem reports

From this page it's possible to specify a problem area.

GRey, can you hit up the rest of your Jukers? The more info we can get for Mike, the better.

I'm not certain how many Juke owners we have here. I may need to ask for a show of hands.

You can count me in. I will offer any info/issues I may have with the Juke.

Thanks. Did you click through to the site and enroll n the survey?

We'll have an initial result later this month, and a full result in August--if four more owners participate. So if you aren't already signed up, I hope you will.

We have an initial result for the Nissan JUKE based on owner experiences through March 31, 2011.

With 21 owners participating, no one reported a repair.

Thank you, once again, to this forum and everyone who has been helping. We'll have further updates in August and November. The more owners participate, the better the information we can provide.
