2000 GMC Jimmy SL review from North America

Oil changed every 3,000 miles by the dealership.

At 52,000 miles-A #5 rod went bad. I had to have six rings and a bearing kit, seal and a gasket set. $1400.

At 68,000 miles-I had to have the head transfer case fluid changed.$159.

At 90,000 the turn signal. $208.89.

At 96835 miles I had to have head gasket set, oil cooler lines, flush kit, several different gasket sets- total cost this time $1,922.54.

At about 100,000 I was told I needed to have a Crank kit again due to engine knot on driver side!! est. $1968.!!!

The 2000 General Motor Company (GMC) jimmy that I drive is a very nice car to look at. It has leather seats and a moon roof. It is power everything and the drivers side is comfortable to ride in. However the rest of the car is very uncomfortable. The passenger side has a large bump in the floor. This bump makes the legs hurt.

But, looks is only a small part of why we buy a car. Dependability is the number one reason we buy a car. The 2000 GMC jimmy has no depentability. It is high priced and poorly made! I'll bet that other GMC cars and trucks have the same dependability. The GMC people that I spoke with would not stand behind their workmanship. I was left holding the bag! So, I was left to drive around in a $20,000.00 car with a very badly made motor. I still haven't had the crank kit done. I just found out last week. No, they are not standing behind their work. It is called low integrity. Be careful.
