Juke intermittent starting issue

My 2015 Nissan Juke with a gasoline engine is giving me fits. Sometimes it won't start, other times it shuts off while I'm driving, and occasionally runs super rough. Mileage is at 96915 km. Could it be the ignition switch? Anyone else run into this?

Whoa, that sounds familiar! I had something similar happen with my Juke, though I can't say for sure it's the exact same thing. Do you notice it happening more when the weather is hot or cold? Or does wiggling the key in the ignition make any difference?

Interesting. I hadn't thought about the weather, but now that you mention it, it might be worse when it's cold. As for the key, I haven't tried wiggling it specifically. What did you end up doing to fix your issue?

Yeah, the cold was a factor for me too. Honestly, I messed around with it for a bit trying to figure it out myself, but I just ended up taking it to a workshop. They said something about a defective fuse linked to the ignition. Saved me a headache in the long run. Maybe that's something you could try, or get it checked. Just a suggestion!

Thanks for the tip! I checked the fuses, and sure enough, one was blown. Replaced it for 52€ and she's running like new. Appreciate the help!
