2001 GMC Sonoma review from North America
"Truck is pure junk and repair bills are expensive"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Oil lines have leaked since driving it off the dealer lot. I have replaced them twice.
Both front hubs went out as soon as the warranty was up. 4x4 button will not engage half the time. Yesterday, while going about a half mile to the store the fuel pump failed. MPG is terrible.
I did put stiffer shocks and overload springs on this truck which helped in overall drivibility.
Most of this truck was made in Mexico, and you can tell. I would not buy another GM product again. I think I will go back to a full size Ford.
