2000 jimmy
This is for all jimmy (2000) owners,that have a noise in font that knowone can find. In this model it's the condenser/heater core loose in it's housing. The gas gauge quits working properly because the fuel in Canada still contains a particular addative that has been removed in the US, where these fuel tank sensor where made,they get corroded in places and fail. Early failer of the front wheel bearings are do to just plain old "bad design" and low quality.
JIMMMYY!
So I got this 2000 GMC Jimmy at 165,000 miles, now it has 172,000 miles and it a complete money pit, but a life saver. I have spent $3500 in repairs in the last 6 months. I've taken it to three different mechanics and technicians.Every single part on my brake is brand new, and the ABS light is still on. I can't afford to keep it anymore, so this is a good car if you are a mechanic or have a mechanic who knows who he is doing. BUT this has saved me through the winter. With All-Season tires it plowed through 2 feet of snow and 2 inches of ice. No weather condition stopped me, and I was incredibly thankful. (Maine Winter of 2014-2015)

Ehhhh
Great power and utility, fair gas mileage, comfortable seats, bumpy ride. I loved this vehicle at first until the problems started. By the time 35000 miles hit I bought an extended warranty which paid for itself. MANY transmission problems. One of which would toss vehicle occupants around when switching gears, intermittant, dealer could not duplicate on 10 seperate visits.
I'm So Sorry I Bought This Vehicle
Starting at 20000 miles, my 2000 Jimmy has had nothing but problems: front wheel bearings, both sides ($450 but GMC covered this even though I was out of warrenty for one of them because this vehicle has had so many problems), ignition switch, front and rear pinion seals TWICE recurrent problem every 18000 miles or so), electrical problems. Now my brakes are making a strange creaking and groaning noise if applied with any force. Here I paid $28000 two years ago for a truck that is now worth only $12000 trade in and I cannot with good conscience sell it to a private buyer without revealing all the problems, then who in their right mind would buy it!
Not a favorite
Bought this used. Had a 1995 Villager that need some money be put into it so figured would be better off with a newer vehicle. Well I was wrong. In the year since I have purchased this I have spent more money in repairs then I would have had to do to the Villager. Plus now a monthly payment. Fuel pump, hubs both sides, passenger needs it done again. Ball joints, brakes done right before I bought, needs COMPLETE brake job again. It's nice looking and good in the snow but that's about it. Dont buy. They are horrible.
