When I first got this Jimmy it was great. now within the last 4 yrs I have put in 5 fuel pumps plus other parts but I understand the wear and tear other parts but five fuel pumps. I put two fuel pumps in the last two years. Maybe I will get lucky and gm will bail me out with some help to purchase a fuel pump which I desperately need with this economy. I really need a bail out like gm got. Thanks Margaret Butler

Hi I bought it used. Now have 191,000 and if you throw enough money at something it will keep running, This is the only vehicle I have ever had to have towed 7 times and I have been driving over 40 years. AAA is a must if you drive one of these. The body still looks great. Now there is something major going on with the front end. Afraid to take it to the mechanic. This is the third transmission, one radiator, fuel pump has been replaced 3 times. The starter, brakes and rotors several times. The 4 wheel drive and a/c works perfectly have not had to do anything with either too bad the whole car wasn't like these components.

It looks nice but the fuel economy is bad and the constants check ups makes it no realiable. The heater core failed and I had engine coolant steam inside the cabin and to fork out $$$ to repear. I wish I had not bought it.

I have always had good luck with my GM cars and trucks. Not sure if I got a lemon or what. I bought the Jimmy for my wife. In the past 6 months I have replaced the rear end, followed the next month by the transmission and two weeks later a fuel pump. Needless to say none of it was cheap. The door locks have stopped working. The driver's side window sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. Now you have to turn the key on and off twice to get it to start. The Jimmy has pretty much been a disappointment and a money pit. I could understand if the car was driven hard but we live in the city. It's used to pick up the kids and in town use.
