Snapshot
- Total of 1372 cars affected
- Only the F16 generation has been recalled
- Nissan is offering to undertake repairs free of charge
The F16-generation Nissan Juke has been placed under recall, with 2019-2020 model years involved.
A total of 1372 units are affected by a potential manufacturing issue, which Nissan believes may cause the rear seat to not lock into place correctly when in its upright position.
If the rear seat isn't correctly locked in to place, its occupants may not be seated properly and items in the boot could potentially make their way through to the cabin, increasing the risk of injury.
Between 2019 and 2020, Nissan sold 1557 Jukes, with the recall covering almost 90 per cent of all units shifted.
Nissan has said it will contact known owners when parts become available, offering to arrange repairs at the nearest dealer free of charge.
