“I own a 2000 Jimmy and have gone through 2 sets of upper and lower ball joints and at this time the left lower ball joints went again. What is the problem with the ball joints? This is costly to repair, as wel as dangerous, affecting the steering. I would like to know what improvments are being done to correct the problem, and if it is a common occurance among other Gmc SUV's. There should not be disposible parts put on the front end of any vehicle.”
NHTSA complaint #10102566, filed 2004-12, 72,000 miles“I would just like to start out by saying I enjoy GM vehicles. They are all I drive, but sometimes they have little problems. Like my 2000 Gmc Jimmy sls. The recline handle on the drivers and passengers seat keep falling off and stripping the bear metal. I never pull on them so they dont get pulled on. I would just like to know how you intend to fix the problem and when. Now there is nothing else wrong with the SUV but minor things due to age. I would just like to know how you intend to fix the problem. Thank you for your time. Michael diemert”

A grinding and metallic noise was coming from the front of the vehicle and I had to have done at the dealer. Two years ago, this same hub and bearing assembly was replaced at 48000 miles. Now, this vehicle has 75000 miles and I have to replace the right hub and bearing assembly. This means that this part only lasted 48000 miles and the replacement part less than 27000 miles. On both instances, there was also a failure of the ABS brake system. …”
