NHTSA files every complaint against a named sub-assembly, not just a
system. This is the difference between knowing it was "the engine" and
knowing which part of it — the list to hand a mechanic.
A spike years after the car went on sale usually means a part wearing
out on schedule across the whole fleet — the kind of pattern no single
owner can see from inside their own car.

NHTSA investigations into the 1992 GMC Jimmy
An investigation is the step before a recall: the agency has seen enough
complaints to look into a pattern itself. An open one means it thinks
something may be wrong and nothing has been fixed yet.

Recalls on the 1992 GMC Jimmy
A complaint is one owner's allegation. A recall is the point at which
the manufacturer or a regulator agreed the defect is real and dangerous
enough to fix for free — however old the car is.

Canada runs its own recall programme, and its campaigns do not
always mirror the American ones.

Brakes
Certain four wheel drive vehicles may experience increased stopping distances during ABS stops while in the two-wheel drive mode. A switch can erroneously signal the ABS system that the vehicle is in four-wheel drive when the vehicle is actually in two wheel drive. Correction: Dealers will replace the switch on affected vehicles.

WE WERE GIVEN A 1992 GMC JIMMY BY MY FATHER, AND ALONG WITH THE CAR CAME ALL THE CORRESPONDING PAPERWORK. INCLUDED IN THE PAPERWORK WAS A "SAFETY RECALL NOTICE" FROM GMC DATED MAY 2000, RECALL # G99041-S. THIS LETTER DESCRIBES AN ABS BRAKE FAILURE RESULTING IN ABNORMAL STOPPING DISTANCES AND THE REQUIRED REPAIRS. WHEN WE GOT THE CAR, I ASKED MY FATHER IF THE REPAIR WAS PERFORMED AND HE STATED "THAT WHEN HE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP FOR AN APPOINTMENT THEY HAD NO RECORD OF THE RECALL SO THE REPAIR WAS NOT PERFORMED". SINCE WE'VE TAKEN OWNERSHIP OF THE VEHICLE, WE'VE EXPERIENCED A BRAKE FAILURE AS DESCRIBED IN THIS LETTER AND WISH TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM THAT GMC HAS INDICATED. I'VE TRIED CALLING OUR LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND HAVE RECEIVED THE SAME RESPONSE AS MY FATHER DID, "THERE'S NO RECALL WITH THAT NUMBER AND OUR VIN DOESN'T SHOW ANY RECALL NOTICES". I'VE ALSO CALLED GMC @ 1800-462-8782 AND SPOKE TO A TYHESSIA SMITH (1-866-542-4368 EXTENSION 45904, SERVICE REQUEST # 1-283317144), SHE ALSO HAS NO RECORD OF THE RECALL. HAVING THIS RECALL NOTICE ALONG WITH A BRAKE FAILURE SEEMS TO REQUIRE PROMPT ACTION FROM GMC, BUT IT SEEMS I'M GETTING LITTLE ASSISTANCE FROM THEM.

VISIBILITY:REAR WINDOW WIPER/WASHER
THIS 1992 GMC JIMMY WAS GIVEN TO ME BY MY PARENTS MR AND MRS R E DEARRINGTON. FROM THE FIRST DAY THAT I RECIEVED IT AND WASHED IT FOR THE FIRST TIME THE BACK WINDOW WINDSHIELD WIPER/WASHER ENCLOSURE IS A PAIN IN THE BUTT. VERY ANNOYING, INDEED. WHEN IT RAINS OR THE VEHICLE IS WASHED THE ENCLOSER OF THE WIPERS HOLDS WATER AND THE MOMENT THADT YOU OPEN THE BACK WINDOW IT DUMPS THE WATER RIGHT INTO THE VEHICLE ONTO THE CARPET, AND IT STAYS WET UNTIL IT STINKS UP THE INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE WITH MILDEW ROT OR IT DRIES OUT, STILL LEAVING THAT MILDEW ORDER IN THE VEHICLE. I WAS JUST WONDERING IF THEY HAD A RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE AND HAD SOME WAY OF CORRECTING THE PROBLEM. SINCERELY, BOBBY L DEARRINGTON.

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FROM GENERAL MOTORS DURING THE SUMMER OF 2000. THE RECALL NOTICE WAS CREATED BY THE NATION TRAFFIC AND MOTOR VEHICLE ACT AND WAS TITLED CAMPAIGN #G99041-S. I SCEDULED MY VEHICLE FOR THE UPGRADE AND HAD THIS SERVICE PERFOMED ON 09/20/00. APPROXIMATELY TWO WEEKS AFTER THE UPGRADE THE VEHICLE WAS PLACED IN FOUR WHEEL DRIVE (PUSH BUTTON TYPE) AND WOULD NOT RELEASE AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. I REVIEWED THE VEHICLE MANUAL AND WALKED THROUGH THE PROCESS OF RELEASING THE 4WD IF IT BECAME LOCKED UP AND FORTUNATELY IT WORKED AND RELEASED. I MADE ANOTHER APPOINTMENT WITH THE ORIGINAL DEALER. HIS TECHNICIANS REVIEWED THE VEHICLE ON 10/04 AND SAID THAT THEY HAD PLUGGED IN A VACUMN WRONG AND NOW EVERYTHING WOULD BE OK. APPROXIMATELY TWO MONTHS LATER I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND HAD THE FIRST OPPORTUNITY TO ENGANE THE ABS UNIT. IT ENGAGED AND WORKED AS IT HAD FOUR ABOUT EIGHT YEARS. THE FOLLOWING DAY BOTH THE ABS AND BRAKE DASHBOARD WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED AND STAYED ILLUMINATED. BECAUSE OF TH EBRAKE LIGHT BEING ILLUMINATED AND THE FACT THAT THE VEHICLE HAD THE ORIGINAL BACK BRAKE SHOES I THOUGHT THAT I CHANGED THE BACK SHOES THAT LIGHT ISSUE MIGHT GO AWAY. AFTER CHANGING THE BACK BRAKE SHOES, INSTALLING SPRING KITS, AND TURNING THE DRUMS, I REASSEMBLED, ADJUSTED THE SHOES AND "TRIED THE PEDAL" IN MY GARAGE. BOTH THE STANDARD BRAKE PEDAL AND THE EMERGENY BRAKE PEDALS RESPONDED CLOSE TO THE TOP OF THEIR POSITIONS. AT THIS TIME I STARTED THE VEHICLE AND THE BRAKE PEDAL IMMEDIATLY "FELL" TO THE FLOOR. THE PEDAL PUMPED UP BUT AFTER SEVERAL SECONDS AGAIN FELL TO THE FLOOR. I PURCHASED A NEW MASTER CYINDER FROM NAPA AND INSTALLED IT. ONLY AFTER A COMPLETE SYSTEM BEEDING DID I REGAIN ANY BRAKE PEDAL. BOTH THE ABS AND BRAKE LIGHT STAYED "ON". BACK TO THE DEALER, REPORTED DEFECTIVE ABS ($1400.00) I FEEL THE ORIGINAL RECALL AND DEALER WORK CREATED BRAKE FAILURE.
