problem #3

Jimmy 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 75,000 miles
The entire car is defective, though it does not state it is a lemon. I purchased it used. I have replaced many major parts that are not considered routine maintenance, such a driver's door hinges and bearings, hood release cable, steering arm (twice) hubs (twice) the wiring system is faulty. I have gone through 4 alternators in under 2 1/2 years.

problem #2

Jimmy 4WD 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 46,900 miles
While driving heard a loud humming noise from front of vehicle. Dealer found front hub bearing needed replacement. Drivers side was replaced under warranty on 2/20/03 (note: I'm the original owner and vehicle had 27,000 miles when problem first occurred). Same problem occurred recently this time on passenger side. Dealer replaced passenger side hub bearing on 3/15/04 and cost was split 50/50 with GM and myself (note:46,000 miles on vehicle). Furthermore this problem never occurred before with any other vehicle I've owned or any other non-Jimmy owners that I know of. From reviewing your complaints and talking to other Jimmy owners, this is a widespread problem and a known defect that should be fixed by GM.
