2012 Nissan Juke. Ball joint popped out on him. Don't let this happen to you

[@jptrainor]

Standard operating procedure for a broken Nissan is to tow it to the junk yard.

This one is actually comical. You held it together nicely and remained in character as a serious professional automotive mechanic. Good job. I couldn't have done it.

[@dm7097]

Wonder how many times the customer refused repairs on that ball joint?

[@jptrainor]

One too many times.

I actually don't know apparently the owner is one of our parts guy personal trainer I bet he got some kind of deal on parts.

How did that axle pop out and get in front of the a-arm? What a mess. As to the recall, Honda of Canada is being cheeper than Honda of USA.

[@theoffroadingmechanic]

I'm thinking that wheel came out far enough for that axle to go around the subframe. I'm guessing the tow truck driver lifted and settled it back down where the wheel is somewhat straight

Who knows what Nissan product planners were thinking. Its name is too similar to other unsavory English words (Joke, Puke, etc.).

Nissan in my view is JUNK.

[@jptrainor]

I rented a Nissan Rouge for a road trip through the South West US. I had to limp it back to the LA airport with a severe misfire and a loud clanging coming from the engine. It was absolutely awful to drive in that state (running on 2 out of only 3 cyclinders). The lot attendants at the Hertz depot all LOL'd, literally, when I limped in and they immediately started telling me about how many Rogues come back in that state. They had a good chuckle. Many jokes were cracked. I would consider a basic small Nissan with a manual transmission and a simple non-turbo charged engine, e.g. the Micra, but nothing else.

Since joining with Renault and Criminal fugitive Ghosn, nothing but JUNK!
