1999 GMC Jimmy sle review from North America
"I am very pleased with it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I replaced the right front hub bearing at about 90,000 miles. Needs oil cooler lines & idler arm.
General comments?
First of all I don't know what was replaced or maintained before I purchased my jimmy. However I really have not had much trouble with mine. I work in an automotive shop, so I see what things are common on all cars to go wrong. For example I had to replace my right front hub bearing witch are common on a gmc jimmy, sanoma, Chevy blazer & s 10's just like the oil lines not a big deal. All vehicles are known for certain things to go wrong. It happens to everyone. I actually love my jimmy & have had many compliments on it. I have a slight leak in my oil lines, but I'm too worried about it at this point. Its nice to have in the winter. Also it does pretty good on gas for a mid-sized SUV with a six cylinder motor. It will get up move when I need it. The only thing I don't care for is... well I can't think of anything!
