1999 GMC Jimmy SLS review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Shortly after purchasing my Jimmy the check engineer came on three time, water pump replaced $985.00.
Then the heater core under warranty not sure on cost.
4X4 not working properly, buttons on dash would not even work.
Hood cable broke, bearings were replaced $565.00. Glad I bought the extended warranty.
Then the intake gasket blew causing the gas gauge to stick at 3/4 of a tank all the time.
Now I have howling in the transmittion, having that checked soon. I'm worried about the cost!!! My warranty is now expired.
Good luck to anyone purchasing a Jimmy I know I will never buy one again. It has had over $6,000 in repairs in the last 4 years I have owned it. Soon it will be gone!!!
