hello everyone just bought a juke force red acenta
withpremiumpack on march the first love driving the car very
comfortable but 1000 miles later rattle on drivers door but this is not my main
concern.

when i went to pick the car up on march the first refused to take car
until something was done about the scratches on body work it was
takenstraight away to the body shop to the cosmetic guy thought this was
a bad omen boy was i right .you only have to look at the car wrong and a new
scratch will appear the body work paint is very soft and poor and has ruined my
enjoyment of the car.

put my astra twintop in part ex (wish i had it back) never had a problem
with paint on that car or the punto grande sports i had before and that was
black.

sorry anyone buying a juke look great drive nice very comfortable but
any problem nissan dont give a s**t and my nissan dealer in gateshead was just
as bad,are you ready for this at one point even said well do you want it or not
after i had waited 4 months and been give more delivery dates than you would
believe told jan 9 no call went in told feb 26 complained suggested to take 1st
march new reg car then turned up early.

sorry getting off track but nissan and there dealers are rubbish look on
this site and the juke forum sites lots and lots of complaints about paint
finish and panel fit gaps rubbing and so on,you brush past mine and it
scratches the day i picked it up it was cleansed with auto glym and hd waxed
two coats god knows wat it would have been like if ihadn't.

basically i wake up in the morning and hope its been a bad dream and
when i open the garage door and my un scratched astra is not there i just si
and count the days till i can get rid

maybe a white one
would not show the scratches so bad but the interior dont match (just picky i
know)

sorry to go on but be very carfull what colour you pick cause going back
to your dealer or contacting nissan is a total waste of time that bad i have
even had to go out and buy murguires scratch x2 from halfords and keep it in
the glove box .lets see how many go's it takes to find the rattle everbody can
here it but the mechanic cant

Sorry to hear your problems (but please don't shout here - we are not the enemy) I have to say that my Force Red Tekna collected in Jan is showing NO signs of paint damage other than the Wing/Bumper issue which most seem to have. Nissan seem to be responding to this issue with a re-call.<div id="myWatcherDiv" style="display:none;">My dealers in Broadstairs have been brilliant throughout the 5 month wait for the juke and also since when I have needed them.Maybe your dealer dislikes shouting too..............
good luck getting it resolved.

First as pointed out no need to shout at us
important point if your dealer is unrepsonsive take it to another they are not all bad.
Call Nissan customer service and demand to speak to someon higher than the call centre flunky
better still Nissan are members on the forum send them a private message with your woes and ask for urgent assistance

My force red has no scratches. The odd stone chip but all cars get these. I find it strange that you have so many as I was just commenting the other day how scratch free mine was! Perhaps it's a defect? Hope u get somewhere!

No scratches on my force red either apart from a key scratch that I repaired myself.

Force Red Tekna. 4000 miles. I have found the paint to be rather soft and have had to repair several stone chips from impacts I did not hear happen. Area around door handles shows deep grooves from finger nails. (I see why they sell protectors for that area) Had one deep mark on drivers door from another car door contact. The Nissan paint repair kit is very good though and fills as it colours. The built in rubbing down cap is very clever and works. The top coat is water based and sets within 20 minutes and is as hard as nails. Dont't put it on too thick otherwise you will get a cloudy white 'bubble' of clear coat. Do you think they are speeding up the painting at Sunderland to get them out quicker, before the pain dries properly?

They tried leaving the paint off altogether for some unlucky owners.............
