Looks like some Jukes may have an issue with dash squeaks in really cold weather. Mine had one from the center of the dash when it was warm, but didn't happen all the time. Then when it got cold the one in the middle stopped and the driver's side A-pillar started making noise at every combination of bumps (annoying). Last week the middle dash noise came back and was more of a Popping noise than a squeak. Well, I took it in Friday and they added some insulation under the cowl below where the wiper blades sit and some in the A-pillar. The center dash (guess it wasn't the dash) popping is gone. The A-pillar is still squeaking, but it is greatly reduced (not nearly as annoying). I will be taking it back for the A-pillar again at my next oil change.

Yeah, but WD-40 smells funky. They fixed that noise. I just have to go back for the A-pillar.

Looks like Nissan needs to do something about either the designers or assemblers of dashes for their small cars. That's been a fairly common complaint among Versa owners for 3 1/2 years on this forum.

Guess they don't have bumps in Japan.
