Nissan is recalling 2011 Juke vehicles because a defective weld may cause the turbocharger bracket to separate, potentially leading to an engine stall and increased crash risk.

What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect (defective weld) that can cause the vehicle to stall without warning, increasing the risk of a crash, which aligns with the 'Severe' criteria for structural defects and significant injury risk.

Plain-English summary

Nissan North America, Inc. is recalling certain model year 2011 Nissan Juke vehicles manufactured between April 9, 2010, and May 12, 2011. The recall addresses a defect in the turbocharger boost sensor bracket, which may separate from the air inlet tube due to a defective weld.

If the bracket separates, the vehicle could stall while the engine is idling without warning. This unexpected loss of power increases the risk of a crash. The recall affects approximately 28,294 vehicles.

Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will check the lot number on the air inlet tube and replace it if necessary, free of charge. The safety recall was expected to begin on or about January 9, 2012. Owners may contact Nissan at 1-800-647-7261 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
