I have owned this truck now for 5 years. I am the 1st owner. This truck has been absolutly flawless. The ownly thing that has been replaced is the altenator. It has been to the dealer for only the altenator and routine maintanence.

Purchased used with 33K miles and preconditioned bydealer.Still required brake replacement before acceptance. Car sold with 15# of air in tires. At 28-30# vehicle rides like a brick on wheels. All plastic interior component squeak and or rattle. One year and 5000 miles rear main seal leaking and rear brakes are shot. GM will not help. " Second buyers do not fit the profile of loyal GM customers"

Horrid vehicle. Extensive problems since purchase - major mechanical failures. Sporadically refuses to start - problem untraceable by mechanical professionals. Wipers periodically choose not to work when it rains. Design a nightmare - remove whole console and side panel to replace a broken heater core? You've got to be kidding. Had Chevy with over 200k miles with no problems. Nissan the same. GMC Jimmy a nightmare. Had to get cell phone for protection due to it's unreliability. Will never own GMC product again.
