1999 GMC Jimmy SLT review from North America
"4 sale 1999 gmc lemon"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
- drove car two weeks a/c condenser out
- strange humming noise 1 1/2 months wheel bearings
- 78000 alternator broke (not covered under warranty)
- 77000 4x4 vaccum broke (left me in ditch had to get towed)
- dealer sold me car with wrong spare left me stranded yet again
- key stuck in ignition (now).replaced alternator and battery 4 days ago.
General comments?
Generally this is the biggest peice I have bought that looks like a good car. the only good thing to say about it, is it looks good. thank god we have the dealer 24,000 mile or 2 year warranty, but in 10 months that's over with. we have only drove this car 8986 miles and it has been in the shop 13 days in one year. i don't think we could afford to keep this peice of **** but now we are upside down I think I will trade it in and take the loss better then being stuck on the side of the road.
