  iIs this a nightmare or not? - 2000 GMC Jimmy
  By pat - July 15 - 1:43 pm

  I purchased this vehicle with 33,842 miles. At 36,597 the intake manifold valve had to be replaced. At 52,181 the ABS pump and master cylinder had to be replaced. The drivers back seat rest handle broke off and the mileage is horrible. It also is the noisiest vehicle I have ever driven. In essence, I have only driven this car 18,339 miles in 4 years (purchased in 2002). After reading the article in the Detroit Free Press, dated May 23, 2006, re: Dex-Cool, what might happen next??? I also got a printout of previous repairs and its 2 pages long. Ford Fusion here I come! I have been a GM customer for 40 years and have always had problems. Im DONE.

  Mixed bag - 2000 GMC Jimmy
  By Mixed Bag - March 13 - 2:43 pm

  Bought the vehicle used for work. Gotta love those GM engineers! $800.00 for wheel bearing replacements every 30,000?!!!? Shoulda read up on the Edmunds Forum! Otherwise so-so performance. 4WD works well. Tight fit for a big guy. Milage for this type of vehicle is not too bad. Avg. 16 if I dont use the 4WD. I bought this based on my excellent experience with a 1999 Silverado, but I dont think Ill buy another Jimmy.

  GMC Farewell tour - 2000 GMC Jimmy
  By lwusra - November 8 - 2:00 am

  traded my 97 jimmy with more problems than can list, for the 2000 hoping for better luck to no avail. Comfortabloe my all means for long trips, but cant deal with paying 400 a month for a truck i have to worry about breaking down. only owned it 6 months, was in shop 3 times, smog pump at 36k, alt was going bad, trim was peeling on roof rack.

  Iffy... - 2000 GMC Jimmy
  By Tash - November 22 - 2:00 am

  Well thank goodness Ive only a few months left with this vehicle. This vehicle from the begining had problems. Starting with the recurring brake problems(ABS), to electrical problems. The ignition went out after a year. The serpentine belt went out. Headlights mysteriously went out while driving home one night. The past 5 months have been pretty uneventful fortunately. I still wont have peace of mind until I get a new car. And of course it wont be a GM car. Bad experience overall.

  So Sorry I Bought It - 2000 GMC Jimmy
  By GotAHonda - November 5 - 2:00 am

  Eight trips to the dealership for repeated repairs including wheel bearings, pinion seals, electrical, ignition switch, brakes, the list is endless. Finally took a beating and traded it in (with 3 more problems) for a Honda CRV and what a world of difference. I am sorry I every bought the Jimmy (an expensive lesson). Very poor quality.

  Im So Sorry I Bought This Vehicle - 2000 GMC Jimmy
  By BethPrice - October 27 - 1:00 am

  Starting at 20000 miles, my 2000 Jimmy has had nothing but problems: front wheel bearings, both sides ($450 but GMC covered this even though I was out of warrenty for one of them because this vehicle has had so many problems), ignition switch, front and rear pinion seals TWICE recurrent problem every 18000 miles or so), electrical problems. Now my brakes are making a strange creaking and groaning noise if applied with any force. Here I paid $28000 two years ago for a truck that is now worth only $12000 trade in and I cannot with good conscience sell it to a private buyer without revealing all the problems, then who in their right mind would buy it!
