2000 GMC Jimmy SLE review from North America

"Decent vehicle, but bad on gas."

What things have gone wrong with the car?

The doors are sagging and slightly misaligned.

The alternator blew.

The front right ABS (Anti-lock Brakes) sensor started sending erratic signals and then ceased to function (no ABS).

The rear windshield wiper motor is stripped and just makes a grinding sound.

The driver door weather stripping has detached from the body making it leak in wet weather and car washes.

The vehicle has pulled to the right since it was bought, an alignment was performed and the vehicle still pulls.

Front passenger wheel bearing grinds.

Occasional slipping in the transmission leading no movement on acceleration.

Slow Transmission fluid leak from front seal.

Slow transmission fluid leak from transmission cooling lines.

When decelerating in neutral the fuel gage drops, leaving the low fuel light on and the gage reading empty tank.

Front driver top ball joint knocks and has once been replaced.

General comments?

The vehicle has good acceleration and power, but is not running at the full capacity.

This Jimmy pulls to the right when driving in the city and to the left on highways.

Never had the vehicle stall on me, even in bad weather.

I put a full tank of gas in ($50 Canadian at 82.4 cents per liter) and in 350 km it is already on low fuel.

Also anything under 1/4 tank of gas does not last for more than 20 or 30 kilometers.

I personally don't like the speed limiter set at 160km/h.
