Transmission failure / replaced transmission - upper & lower ball joint failure / replaced upper & lower ball joints - rear window wiper failure / inoperable at this point - extremely expensive replacements with no old parts available at this point. Events leading up to failure I can only attribute to severely poor manufacturing of products, there was no operating misuse or abuse. Also other parts that have failed and have since been replaced are the: Alternator, fuel pump, fuel pressure regulator and cooling system failures.

The coolant temperature gauge would rise and fall quickly in an erratic manner. Upon inspection the radiator was found to be full of a thick reddish substance. The mechanic said that this is a know issue related to the dex cool coolant. He also said that there is a tsb that instructs the mechanic to flush and replace the fluid. My complaint is with the oem for not informing me of the problem with the coolant. If I would have known of the problem, then I would have had the service performed before damaging my coolant system. The damage cost me about $2000 in repairs to replace the radiator, water pump and sensors.

Coolant has failed and is gelling up in engine. GM has stated the coollant should last 5 years or 100000 miles. The coolant system now needs an acid flushh and repair parts which will cost $440. GM states this is M=not a flaw, but the dealer states that it is only occurring in the Jimmy and Chevy S-10 vehicles. They have received a serevice bulletin on how to deal with the problem.

When both back windows are down and driving at approximately55-65 mph vehicle will shake and steering wheel will vibrate. There is no solution, but vibration will stop if all the windows are up or if all are down. Also, at only 48,000 miles rust is developing in cooling system possibly due to radiator. Dealer claims rust is normal, and that the cause is due to engine block. But, the engine block is made out of aluminum which does not rust.

I have had my Jimmy serviced per the owners manual maintenance schedule and only at a GMC dealership, martin GMC in lake charles la. In January of 1999 the cooling system started getting a heavy build-up of rust deposits in the coolant reservoir and radiator. I brought it in to martin GMC on 1/21/99 (30,253 miles) and was told that it was caused by a break down of the dex-cool coolant in the system and that this was normal and would cause no problems later. I brought my Jimmy to and independent auto repair shop that same day and was told that the cooling system was badly rusted and it needed to be flushed and refilled. I brought it back to martin GMC and was again told that this rust was normal and would cause no problems. After this the Jimmy was serviced by martin GMC 3 more times in 1999.on 5/2/00 (43,773 miles)I brought the Jimmy in and had it serviced. I was told that the transmission level couldnT be checked because they were unable to get the dipstick out of the dip stick tube. The rubber/plastic gasket on the dipstick had heated and sealed to the metal dip stick tube. Soon after this, while driving the Jimmy, I started hearing loud water flowing sounds inside under the front dash. I brought it back to martin GMC 5/31/00 to have this checked out and was told that the cooling system was clogged with rust and needed to be flushed. They said that they believed the wrong type of coolant was put in the system causing this. I told them that I had made them aware of the rust problem long before now and that I believe that this rust problem also caused poor cooling of the engine which resulted in the problem with the dip stick.
