| The front doors do not stay open when on an incline, such as my driveway. you have to make sure it catches before you get out, but then if you don't get out real slow it will close on you. the catch is not deep enough. i have had my leg slammed in it many times. i never knew there was a place to report it until i came across this site looking for child car seat safety reports. my husband has listened to me complain about it ever since we bought the car. *tr | |||

| My 1999 gmc jimmy has been given us problems shutting the drivers and passengers doors. it leaked in the car wash or when raining as the doors did not properly close, and now they didn't close at all. i must spend $300 , not in my budget so will get behind with bills, to have the pins and hinges replaced as they were made with nylon , but the replacementwas made of brass. i had to pay already to have the door fixed to close. i tell my son to fasten his seatbelt and stay away from the door as even if it locked. i was afraid it might open.*ak | |||

| I purchased a 1999 gmc jimmy for my daughter. all through the warranty period, there have been problems that still have not been fixed.the brakes have never worked properly, parts inside the vehicle have fallen off, the antenna has fallen off,the electrical system (heating and cooling) has not worked properly,the outside mirrors and windows have not worked properly,the electrical system has buzzed when the radio is on, there has always been a banging noise underneath the vehicle. the left front hub assembly was replaced-didn't correct the probelm-had it replaced again 2 weeks ago-same condition still exists. they finally found the lower and upper ball joints on the passenger side were coming apart-replaced them-but noise (loud sometimes) is still there. have been taking this vehicle in for repairs since i bought it-have been without the vehicle over 30 days in the warranty perioid. now-after breaking down twice again in the last 2 months (a condition i've been trying to have them fix since 11/01) due to no power when i press on the gas-it's going in again. it is 2 hours one-way to the dealer (silviera, healdsburg, ca) for me. i believe they have been trying-but i think this vehicle is really now, and has always been a lemon. the vehicle has only 50,000 miles on it, and it is not dependable (never has been). after all these times in for service-taking a day off work every time to get it to them, i've had it. my daughter (college student) who i bought the vehicle for (i wanted her to have something reliable for college), now uses my car-so she won't get stuck all the time. i am ready to put the lemon law into effect with this vehicle.*ak | |||
