Fuel gauge has not worked for the last year. It goes from full to 3/4 of a tank and stays there. Sometimes it will go all the way to "e" then bounce around. Have been counting miles between fill ups to avoid running out of gas.
2000 GMC Jimmy fuel system complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 25 of 25, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Fuel guage does not work. Must watch odometer to guess when gas needed. Abs engages at slow speeds. Replaced once already. Doors must be slammed violently to close doors.
Faulty fuel pump system.
2000 gmc jimmy has had 4 fuel pumps in last year and a half just stopping while driving in traffic and 2 transmissions same as fuel pumps stopping while in heavy traffic. Wiring harness very brittle.
The gas gauge does not work once the amount of gas is below half a tank. I have a gmc 2000 model. There are many complaints about this on the internet, yet no recall. The gas needle either sticks, bounces around or shows a full tank when empty. I never know how much gas I have or if I will end up stranded on the road at night. I guess if someone has a deadly accident due to their vehicle cutting off due to an empty fuel tank with a gauge reading full in high speed traffic, someone will look at this widespread problem then. I hope that I am not that person.

Was driving down highway all of a sudden ran out of gas, car behind me almost hit me because I slowed all of a sudden, gas gauge showed I had half tank, gas gauge bounces back and forth, it was a bad fuel sensor, I feel it is a safety issue because consumer is not aware how much gas they have and could cause an accident if they run out all of sudden.
The gas gauge does not work once the amount of gas is below half a tank, this occurs in many other gmc jimmys in the 2000 model year, I have researched this online and found many complaints about this, yet no recall. The gas needle either sticks, bounces around or shows a full tank when empty, this makes it very difficult to determine if there is enough gas to get to where you need to go and causes people to run out of gas while on the road.
2000 gmc jimmy experiencing problem with start up as well as with the gas gauge on the dashboard. *mr the incident occurred on an extremely cold morning in which the vehicle would not start. The following day the vehicle started, but the consumer noticed that the gas gauge started going from empty to full. The consumer was instructed by the manufacturer to take the vehicle to the dealer and have them replace the PCM module (powertrain control module) free of charge. The engineer suggested that this problem would occur if the weather is very cold. *sc the passenger side weather strip failed.
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.
My fuel gauge is malfunctioning. It floats back and fourth from full to empty. How safe can this be? Also I have had problems with windows not rolling up and down and my back glass will not open from the rear outside button.
My vehicle ran fine, all of the sudden the fuel pump goes bad.
2000 jimmy envoy is one big piece of junk!!!!!
I have a 2000 gmc jimmy with 49500 miles. My gas gauge started to malfunction, and was displaying inaccurate readings. I was quite concerned since this was a fuel related problem. It turns out an electrical component in the fuel sending unit gm part number 25314231 had failed. From what I was told by the gm dealer, this component is submerged in the gas tank of the vehicle. I am reporting this to you for investigation as a possible safety related issue.
When driving, windshield wipers are needed, and windshield wipers are smearing up the center portion of windshield, causing poor driver's visibility. Consumer has contatced dealer. Dealer has replaced blade and arms on five different occasions, problem still occurs. *ak there is a gap in the rear tailgate window, however it can not be adjusted because the hinges are welded in place by a robot. Vehicle experiences poor gas mileage, however dealer stated this was normal.
