1996 GMC Jimmy SLS review from North America
"I don't think I would buy another Jimmy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
4x4 no longer works, used to get jammed, but after not using it for a while it no longer works.
Sometimes get relaly hot near the feet.
Gas lines had to be changed along with a new gas tank.
Heater stopped working and blower motor started making noises, had to be changed.
Dash lights and back running lights stopped working one day.
Sometimes stalls for no apparent reason when idling too long.
General comments?
Runs well on the road.
Not too bad on gas.
Good off road and in the winter.
