Research before you buy I wish I did. - 2001 GMC Jimmy
By Ronda - March 9 - 9:53 amI bought this SUV used out of desperation it was actually going to auction. Silly me shouldve let it go. This truck has been absolutely nothing but a nightmare. Ive replaced the transmission $1800. Drove it home to Michigan from sc and it actually died two blocks away from my in laws driveway. The plastic manifold is a joke it has melted twice with flames destroying gaskets so here goes another $400 in repairs. The driver side window works when it wants to, the gas Gage at 1/4 tank goes move up to 1/2 tank so you really never know how much gas you have in it. Its a money pit and in this economy who needs this! Dont buy this vehicle take it out back and put it out of your misery!

Very Disappointing - 2001 GMC Jimmy
By Umper - March 8 - 12:41 pmMy wife and I purchased this vehicle brand new. Loved the car had wonderful amenities. SLT with heated leather seats, moonroof, onstar, the works. Weve performed all of the scheduled maintenance. Its been garage kept for its entire life and driven less than 10 miles a day with the occasional trip out of town. Drove great UNTIL the warranty expired. Ever since then $$$. Heater stopped working. Weve poured over $3500 into it and it still wont blow hot. The GM mechanic had the nerve to come show my wife how to "properly" turn the heat on. What a jerk never buying GM again. Too many problems to list. Cant wait until its gone. This was a $35,000 piece of crap. No wonder GM needed a bailout.

YES, THIS IS A PIECE OF TRASH - 2001 GMC Jimmy
By Alex - January 30 - 5:12 pmBought the car as a demo, less than 10k miles..., Nothing but problems...Had to bring it back to the dealer over 15 times prior to the warranty running out. First it was Fuel Pump, Air Pump, and basically the whole engine... Then it started leaking oil out of the engine gasket. All this when it was under 36,000 miles. Total trash..... No more GMC for me. No dealer want this piece of trash for a trade in. Youd be lucky to get 1,000 for it.....

Lots of Trouble - 1998 GMC Jimmy
By PetCBut - November 2 - 1:18 pmEngine overheated ALOT!. Blew head gaskets, then connecting rod bearings. AC went out last year. Suspension was a nightmare until the dealer re- torqued the whole thing. Fuel pump went and now continually threatens by whining. Blend control valve in heater cost $250 in LABOR to change out when the weak gear cracked!! After $3000 this one is junk!

Are you kidding me! - 2001 GMC Jimmy
By missle711 - September 6 - 6:01 pmWow, and I thought I was the only person who absolutely hates this SUV! Single mom trying to make it and this suv keeps putting me further in the whole. When my transmission went out the repair shop told me they replace at least two or more of these models of transmissions every week. They recommend that you buy a new transmission and have it rebuilt. Yeah $1500.00 and 1 1/2 years later the transmission is just about shot again. I have replaced almost all front end parts 2-3 times (yes, the same parts) I was told after buying it that it is a high maintenance suv. Wish someone would have told me that before I bought it...lol ABS/brake lights stay on wipers always break I could go on for days

Clanker - 2001 GMC Jimmy
By Amadeus - June 12 - 9:08 pmIt 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.
