Equipment Problems of GMC Jimmy

The vehicle has lost all power to go. She sounds like she is suffocating and not getting enough air. I have changed the fuel filter, the maf(that is the code that is being thrown from the check light) spark plugs. Also cylinder 5 is misfiring.

I was just driving down the street and my door flew open.

After getting an oil change I was informed of a leak in my oil pan, as I got home the next morning I noticed that my car leaked out all the oil in the car resulting from a fault o-ring seal, also now having problems with the suspension as my idler arm is about to snap at any moment resulting in the lose of steering for the car. The car was taken to a mechanic before I purchased it and only one bushing was replaced instead of all of them at the same time, also the mechanic improperly replaced the front shocks as instead of replacing the grease bearings the mechanic used bolts to assemble and hold them in place resulting in an annoying sqeak in the front end of the car since the shocks cant be properly greased as there are not grease fittings.

For the past several years the engine stops running without warning and will not start for several hours. The gas system has been replaced, new coil and distributor, oil, and still it stops. I have talked to others who have had the same problem and had to park their Jimmy due to the unsafe nature of the problem, the Jimmy has been to 3 dealers who charged a lot of money but never fixed the problem.

There are 8 different serious safety recalls on my vehicle that I was not informed of.

Won't start.

Many problems with this 2000 Jimmy. Bought it used from carmax at 18k miles on Jan 2003, got ext. Warranty, but soon after, front brakes need to be replaced, replaced by carmax for free, but 6 mos later brakes needed replaced. Was advised that rear rotors and brakes were almost at end of life. 9 mos later, replaced rear brakes and rotors, not covered under warranty due to wear and tear, spent $450 as well as replacing serpentine belt and flushing break fluid, total cost $650. Problems with sunroof started in Apr 2003, it finally stopped working and was replaced at 43k miles under ext warranty, had to get new battery, noise in under carriage on drivers side, determined to be problems with hub bearings and idle arm, inner tie rod, all replaced under ext warranty, total cost would have been $750.

The vehicle was towing a trailer when the trailer became detached from the vehicle and flipped on the side and struck the rear of the vehicle, possibly due to trailer hitch failure. (ohio traffic crash report).

The bolts on the bumper buddy are incorrectly sizes which causes to not engage the lock nuts properly. Yh.
