Report: Why some Nissan Juke owners are getting a $400 check in the mail

The Nissan Juke is offered in two different drivetrain flavors: front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. When marketing the Juke early on, Nissan listed the gas tank capacity at 13.2-gallons. That's true... for the front-wheel-drive model, however, the all-wheel-drive Juke has a smaller 11.6-gallon tank. Nissan caught the error and corrected it, but not before approximately 4,000 Juke owners purchased the all-wheel-drive Juke and assumed they had the larger tank.

Not content to simply issue an all-encompassing apology, Nissan is sending out letters to each one of those 4,000 Juke owners (out of the 22,000 folks who have so far purchased a Juke). But there is more than just a letter inside the envelope. Nissan is also including a check for $400.

They honestly should have called it the Nissan Joke. I can't look at one on the street without laughing

The whole car reminds me of a frog!

I think the Nissan Juke fell out the ugly tree

When are they going to do a recall(for a completely new and restyled front clip)?

speedflex

I also don't quite get the styling either but this thread is becoming kinda stupid.

chiks

what is that?

Does it really matter if the tank is 11.6 or 13.2 gallons? That's only a gallon-and-a half difference.......and, besides, an intelligent car-owner will keep his or her tank reasonably full anyway, to guard against running out. Certainly not, IMO, worth a rebate-check from the manufacturer.

The "parrot-beak" refers to the awkward-looking Acura grilles.
