    we bought this car 1997 gmc jimmy in 2001, after a year having it the wiper motor broke down. we received the recall letter after we had it fixed. afterward, passenger door bolts broke down, then something about the break system, then fuel pump broke down followed with electricity that make the car starts. the car is only 7 years old and it all had the symptoms of a 15 year old car or worst. would never buy anymore gmc. it sucks, terrible, terrible car.

  • Suckered by GMC - 1998 GMC Jimmy

    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? Youve 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 its unreliability. Will never own GMC product again.

  • Nothing but trouble - 2001 GMC Jimmy
    By -

    Let me see if I can list all the problems Ive had with this vehicle in just the last year. Tires at 15K, Wipers failed, Check engine light always on, Cruise failed, Been to the dealer about a dozen times for non- routine maintenance. Front end rattle. I had a Nissan pathfinder before this one and Im sorry I switched to a chevy.

  • I got shafted - 1995 GMC Jimmy
    By -

    Bought this car to have 4x4 for NJ snow. Along with it I had to replace muffler, tires, engine, altinator, muffler, catalic converter, some diaphram thing for the brakes, dont even try to replace the spark plugs on this took me 2 days, waterpump, fuelpump, 4x4 switch. I think I have done enough work and replaced enough of this to build a new car. CAVEAT EMPTOR!

  • ITS A DUD - 1997 GMC Jimmy
    By -

    THIS VEHICLE, ALTHOUGH USED, SHOULD HAVE BEEN EASILY TAKEN THRU TO 2005 WITH NO MAJOR PROBLEMS IVE HAD THREE RECALL NOTICES ABOUT CERTAIN PARTS OF THE VEHICLE AND ITS BEEN A MAJOR DISAPPOINTMENT I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A SUPPORTER OF GM VEHICLES, BUT THIS HAS REALLY SOURED ME ON GM PRODUCTS I DONT THINK ILL EVER PURCHASE ANOTHER GM VEHICLE AGAIN THE DEALERSHIP WAS ALSO A DISAPPOINTMENT AND TREATED ME WITH DISRESPECT.

  • Comfy but Problemmatic - 2001 GMC Jimmy
    By -

    Purchased new in May 2001. First year was great. Starting the second year it has been a nightmare. Wiring went faulty, car woulnt start, lights flickered and eventually stalled in traffic. Ball joints (all) replaced 4 times and Im taking it in for a fifth. Control arms, idle arm, battery, alternator, and tires have all had to be replaced. GMC does not stand behind this vehicle so Ive had to flip the tab for rental vehicles.
