Two problems related to service brakes have been reported for the 2000 GMC Jimmy. The most recently reported issues are listed below.

1 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 10/20/2007

I bought a 2000 Jimmy from oak motors. I have had it for 5 months. In the last 5 months I have replaced the alternator, 3 pulleys, serpentine belt. The brakes are going out, power steering is going out, engine is tapping. I took it back after having it for 10 days because the service engine light came on. They wanted 175. 00 to look at it. I was told at the time of purchase that I had to purchase the warranty for 995. 00, I thought this was to cover any problem with the vehicle. It doesn't. They now want 540. 00 to fix it. Please help.

2 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 06/26/2003

I have a 2000 slt Jimmy which has been a pain. I've had lower ball joints replaced, upper ball joints replaced, major problems with the brakes, u joints replaced, hub and wheel bearing problems, altenator failure, a/c blower motor replaced, broken blend door which caused encoder motor and module failure, rear wiper moter replaced, back window lock replaced. Too many things have gone wrong with this vehicle. GMC should consider some sort of recall because I've read many complaints regarding some of the same issues.
