I have put more into the jimmy then I paid for it. Im surprised I didn't see the fuel pump mentioned more. It has cost me 1200 alone. The ball joints are also a problem but do to roads where I live. I replace them myself to cut cost. I also had electrical problems and replaced the mass air flow sensor 2x. Over all gas mileage good comp to 98 ply voyager mini van. I enjoy driving it when it's running and it hasn't left me stranded w/ 3 kids. Also back seat too small for 2 kids w/ car seats.
Nightmare Finally Over

I finally unloaded my Jimmy. Took a big loss with trade-in. SUV was the biggest money pit I have ever owned. Performance through first three years was good, but as soon as the warranty expired, bang, the problems occured. GMC had to know this car was substandard by only offering the 3/36 warranty. Wheel bearings/ball joints went at 60k-dealer told me I was lucky, as he had seen them "as early as 14k." That was $1300. Other problems: driver's door joint fell apart/replaced; rear window hatch rusted/replaced; alt. replaced, etc. I maintained this car meticulously with no off-road. Much of the miles were highway. Reading other similar ownership reviews leads me to believe this car is a lemon!

I love my SUV, have always loved sitting up a little higher than in a low sedan style. I bought this one used with 52000 m. on it. Had some trouble with electrical. Hubby thinks it went thru Katrina flood but I don't! It has suddenly quit after on a couple instances of long trips-always during hot season- just all electrical quit, had to call AAA once--another time just waited side of the road 1 or 2 minutes, and it started right up and ran ok. Seemed like when it heated up, air running, etc. it happened. No one could ever explain or figure out the problem. So, consequestly, I do not have the confidence I should have in this particular Jimmy. Always loved them before.

This vehicle was a pain from the beginning, secondday we had to get the antenna wire re-connected to get FM. We've had problems with the wheel bearings and $800 later it still makes a noise. The windshield wipers froze one day and they started crash into eachother and I'm afraid to drive in the rain now. Sometimes when control is in off position they stay up. Rear windshield wiper doesn't always work. Rattles come from everywhere with all the cheap plastic. The suspension creaks. The plastic panels in the back fall off for no reason other than the little fasteners don't hold. It has a rocky and unconfortable ride, and backseat is small.
PATHETIC!!!!!

THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN AN ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE. GM MUST BE VERY AFRAID OF THEIR QUALITY HAVING ONLY A 3 YEAR, 60,000KMS. WARRANTY! WE ONLY HAVE 50,000KMS. ON THE 4X4 BUT THE 3 YEARS HAVE PASSED AND BELIEVE ME THIS IS 100% JUNK. FROM DAY ONE,ALL THE BALL JOINTS HAD TO BE REPLACED, THE IGNITION WENT OUT ON IT. THE EGR VALVE, THE TRANSMISSION SEALS, TWO ENGINE SENSORS, THE OIL COOLANT LINES, THE BATTERY, THE ROTORS AND BRAKE PADS AND THE VEHICLE HAS NEVER BEEN IN FOUR WHEEL DRIVE. I CAN HONESTLY SAY THAT THERE IS NOTHING ABOUT THIS VEHICLE THAT IS ANY GOOD. THE ENGINE IS UNDERSIZED, AND WE DON'T EVEN GET 17 MILES TO THE GALLON ON THE HIGHWAY.
