  Never left me stranded - 1999 GMC Jimmy
  By LOVE MY JIMMY - April 22 - 1:04 am

  I bought my Jimmy in 01. now has 200,000 miles. so far i have replaced the alternator the starter the fuel pump the cooling system with the heater core because of the GM dex cool anti freeze it came with it turns out it actually doesnt last 5 years or 150,000 miles. oh and CV joints all of this in the last few years of ownership and it all didnt happen back to back. It runs like a champ to this day and I get the best gas mileage any SUV has ever seen. all the repairs I made are just what happens with a vehicle that gets driven daily come on people its not a honda take care of your truck do all the upkeep on time. Its easier to fix a used car than pay a new car payment every month.

  My Jimmy - 2001 GMC Jimmy
  By SN09 - April 14 - 11:15 am

  When I first bought it off the dealership I had to have them replace the thermostat, radiator. I havent had any big problems since then, but it does seem like its slowly slipping. They charged way to much money for this SUV and its a gas hog!

  Great Everyday SUV - 1996 GMC Jimmy
  By Chadthehammer - April 3 - 11:49 am

  Im 20 years old and I Have worked construction throwing a wheel barrel in the back just putting the seats down, storing my fishing poles beside my tools, helped plenty of friends move a few things like small dressers and televisions, Camping is fun especially when dealing with the muddy and dirt roads just putting it in 4WD. and now being a Sales man I use it to transport packages and when Im running a little late I like the option of just driving up onto a sidewalk or off road or squeezing between some small areas to maneuver around heavy congestion and traffic. I love it and the few repairs to the bushings, tires, and some electronics were worth it.

  A Solid All Around Vehicle - 2000 GMC Jimmy
  By Teach2010 - March 24 - 6:52 pm

  It doesnt have the greatest style, highway wind noise is way too loud, the plastic interior feels very cheap and the exterior design is very basic. Those are the cons. The pros are that it is a very reliable car. I have not had one problem with it. Its driving comfort is quite good and it is good for hauling. If what you want is a solid vehicle that is reliable and piratical for yourself or a teenagers first car. You would do well with this one.

  2001 gmc jimmy - 2001 GMC Jimmy
  By margaret - March 14 - 2:53 pm

  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

  Research before you buy I wish I did. - 2001 GMC Jimmy
  By Ronda - March 9 - 9:53 am

  I 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 pm

  My 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 pm

  Bought 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.....

  The guy who sold me this junk knew what he was doing Its nothing but money money and problems they are good about posting the problems but wont respond to anything and wont put out a penny for all the mess they created what ever happened to good american cars? Will never buy again. Dont even give a second look just run the other way.
