CVT is starting to go....

Hi guys,

New to the forum so please be nice....

So the other day I noticed my Juke 1.6 Auto stalling in between 1st and 2nd gear. After a bit of research, I found that this is a common defect in models from 2012-2017. Mine is a 66 plate and only done 60k miles. I seen in America there was a class action against Nissan in which they extended the warranty on the CVT in these cars to 80ish thousand miles. However, that doesn't help us here in the UK. I know getting a new transmission fitted here will be in the thousands of pounds. This I just cannot afford. Just wondering if anyone has any advice on how to go about getting this sorted without it bankrupting me? Has anyone managed to get a decent deal from Nissan to get this fixed due to it being a well known defect?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Its worth pursuing as a private claim if there is no group which is already challenging the issue with Nissan
Do a Google search to see if anyone else is pursuing it and maybe it may sway the dealership decision with some financial assistance to resolve it

Alternatively you could try to find an independent transmission specialist who may know the issue and the modification to repair the gearbox
