2002 GMC Jimmy SLS 4X4 4 Door review from North America
"A nice family SUV"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Windshield leaked.
Tires needed to be balanced.
Front Deferential Seal went at 20,000 km.
Exhaust rattles at high temperatures.
Door Seals needed to be replaced due to the doors not being aligned properly.
Fuel Gauge Sensor needed to be replaced.
Rear Tailgate motor replaced at 15,000 km.
Rear Tailgate Trim replaced - dealership broke it when they tried to replace the motor.
When temperatures are below -2 - windy noise/knock from engine.
Timing Belt replaced at 10,000 kms.
General comments?
I like the ride of the Jimmy, the 4x4 works wonders in the winters in the heavy snow.
Very roomy - tons of room with two car seats and strollers.
With all the problems, I still love this Truck!
Price of Jimmy's are too high though, not very affordable.
