2007 Hummer H3 Complaint Log

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HUMMER H3. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN THE KEY WAS IN THE IGNITION AND TURNED TO THE ON POSITION, THE PASS LOCK WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND THE ENGINE FAILED TO START. AFTER 15 MINUTES, THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER, WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE THEFT DETERRENCE SYSTEM FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED SEVERAL TIMES, BUT THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000.

EVER SINCE I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE, THE VEHICLE HAS STALLED AT BETWEEN 25MPH AND 0. I WORK FOR THE US CENSUS BUREAU, PERMANENT WORKER AND I TRAVEL THROUGH ALL TYPES OF WEATHER CONDITIONS IN A DAY, FROM 9,000 FT MOUNTAINS COVERED IN SNOW TO DESERT GRAVEL ROADS, MESAS, CLIFFS. OVER THE PAST TWO YEARS THE VEHICLE HAS SHUT OFF WHILE TRAVERSING MOUNTAIN ROADS COVERED IN SNOW WITH NO GUARD RAILS, AND THREE TIMES, WHEN THE ENGINE SHUT OFF, I LOST STEERING AND CAME WITHIN INCHES OF GOING OFF THE SIDE (CLIFFS) OF THESE ROADS, NOT TO MENTION IN TOWN, WHEN MY ENGINE SHUTS OFF AS I DRIVE, I HAVE COME CLOSE TO HITTING OTHER VEHICLES OR POLES AS I LOSE POWER STEERING ON A TURN.. I HAVE TO DRIVE ABOUT 90 MILES ONE WAY TO GET IT SERVICED, WHILE UNDER WARRANTY, I HAD IT "REPAIRED" ABOUT FIVE TIMES, NO SUCCESS, ONCE WARRANTY EXPIRED, GM DEALERS 90 MILES AWAY WERE STILL WILLING TO INSPECT VEHICLE SINCE PROBLEMS STARTED WHILE UNDER FULL GM WARRANTY, BUT NOW, THEY REFUSE TO GIVE ME A RENTAL AND TELL ME THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. MY LOCAL GM DEALER (ALAMOGORDO) REFUSES TO INSPECT VEHICLE AND THUS I AM REQUIRED TO MAKE A 180 MILE ROUND TRIP, BUT NOW, EVEN DEALER TELLS ME THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT THE ISSUE IS AND THEY CANNOT REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM IN THE SHOP. I TOOK ABOUT 6 VIDEOS WITH MY DROID AFTER THE PROBLEM HAPPENS, BECAUSE THE PROBLEM LINGERS FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES, THEN IT STOPS AND THE VEHICLE WORKS FINE. THE VIDEOS HOW THE RPM'S GOING UP AND DOWN, UP AND DOWN, UNTIL THE CAR SHUTS OFF, I RESTART IT, THEN IT SHUTS OFF AGAIN, OVER AND OVER AGAIN. PROBLEMS USUALLY APPEAR IN THE AM, AS I DRIVE OFF FOR THE FIRST TIME, BEFORE IT IS DRIVEN A GOOD DISTANCE, BUT CAN AND HAS HAPPENED AT ANY MOMENT. VERY DANGEROUS AND I DO NOT FEEL SAFE EACH MORNING AS I LEAVE MY MOUNTAIN HOME, ESPECIALLY IN COLD SNOW WEATHER. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HUMMER H3. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, THE KEY BECAME STUCK IN THE IGNITION AND COULD NOT BE REMOVED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE IGNITION CYLINDER FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALER MADE MANY ATTEMPTS TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE, BUT THE REMEDY FAILED. IN ADDITION, VARIOUS ELECTRICAL FUNCTIONS FAILED AND A BURNING ODOR WAS NOTICED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 7,000.

44,000 MILES CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON . TOOK TO DEALER I HAD A CYLINDER 5 MISFIRE CODE P300 COUPLE THOUSAND MILES LATER MY TRUCK WAS STILL SHOWING MULTIPLE MISFIRES. I HAD TO REPLACE THE RADIATOR BECAUSE IT WAS LEAKING AND THERMOSTAT AT 46,000, APRIL 2011 AT 65,000MILES MY TRANSMISSION WENT OUT COMPLETELY AND HAD TO BE REPLACED JULY 2012 AIR STOP WORKING TOOK TO DEALER THEY SAID I HAD TO REPLACE THE FAN BLOWER MOTOR RESISTOR. RESEARCHED AND FOUNDED THIS WAS A KNOWN PROBLEM FOR HUMMERS THE MOTOR GETS TO HOT AND MELT CAUSING THE FAN BLOWER TO GO OUT . SEVERAL MONTHS LATER CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON SEVERAL MORE TIMES TOOK TO THE DEALER SAID THEY COULDN'T FIND PROBLEM AND CLEARED CODE MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN SO I TOOK TO AUTO ZONE DIAGNOSTIC SHOWED CYLINDER 5 COIL MULTIPLE MISFIRE SO I HAD SPARK PLUGS CHANGED ALONE WITH ALL FIVE IGNITION COILS. COUPLE MONTHS LATER CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN TOOK IT TO DEALER DIAGNOSTIC TEST REVEAL CODE PO 300 AGAIN AND COUPLE OTHER CODES DEALER SAID MY TRUCK HAD AN EMISSION LEAK. MULTIPLE MISFIRE ,CYLINDER 5 AND A SMALL CRACK IN THE HEAD. I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND HOW THAT MAGICALLY HAPPEN. I PAID THE DEALER TO FIX THIS ON MARCH 2014. A WEEK LATER CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN . TOOK TO DEALER DIAGNOSTIC SHOWED EMISSION LEAK APPARENTLY THEY DIDN'T FIX IT THE FIRST TIME. WEEK LATER CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN TOOK TO DEALER AND DIAGNOSTIC TEST REVEAL TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH SOLENOID .DEALER SAID I NEED TRANSMISSION REPLACED. I'M CONFUSED AT THIS POINT THE DEALER PUT A NEWTRANSMISSION 3 YEARS PRIOR .MY TRUCK HAS NEVER BEEN OVER THE ROAD. I ONLY DRIVE LOCALLY. NOW AT 103,000 MILES THE DEALER IS SAYING I NEED ANOTHER TRANSMISSION . SOMETHING IS NOT RIGHT HERE. AFTER RESEARCHING I'VE FOUND THOUSAND OF HUMMER OWNERS EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEMS I'VE EXPERIENCED. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE TO PROTECT CONSUMERS. *TR

GOODYEAR WRANGLER TIRES, ALL (INCLUDING) SPARE WITH APPROXIMATELY 54000 MILES ARE ALL CRACKING ON THE CENTER OF THE OUTSIDE WALL. TRYING TO SEE IF THERE IS A SAFETY NOTICE OR RECALL REGARDING THESE TIRES. ONE TIRE HAS A BUBBLE ON THE SIDE THAT IS ABOUT THE SIZE OF A BASEBALL FROM THE RIM TO THE TREAD. THE TIRES ARE THE ONES ON A NEW PURCHASE OF AN H3 HUMMER (2007). PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF THERE ARE ANY ISSUES REPORTED SAFETY OR RECALL SIMILAR TO THIS. *TR

ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF HUMMER H3 DUE TO CHROME INSERT ON ENGINE HOOD REFLECTING SUNLIGHT INTO THE DRIVERS EYES AT CERTAIN ANGLES- GM MUST CONSIDER THAT PLACING CHROME PARTS ON THE ENGINE HOOD HAVE REFLECTIVE CAPABILITIES THAT INTERFERE WITH SAFE OPERATIONS OF THE VEHICLE. *TR

MY CAR BEGAN SHOW THE PASSLOCK DISABLING SYSTEM LIGHT AND THEN FAILING TO START. AFTER STARTING, IT WOULD THEN SHOW THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHTS FOR A PERIOD THAT MIGHT BE SEVERAL MINUTES TO SEVERAL DAYS BEFORE GOING OUT AGAIN. THIS CYCLE HAPPENED AT RANDOM TIMES DISABLING THE AUTO WITHOUT WARNING AND IN SOME DANGEROUS SITUATIONS. IT IS A WELL KNOWN AND PUBLICIZED PROBLEM THAT GM HAS CHOSEN TO IGNORE. I HAVE SOLVED THE PROBLEM BY HAVING PASSLOCK DISABLED AND IGNORING THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT WITH THE ASSUMPTION IT IS A FALSE WARNING. THESE RECENT EVENTS HAVE ME RECONSIDERING THAT ACTION, BUT THE COST OF HAVING THE PROBLEM RECTIFIED WOULD BE MORE THAN I COULD AFFORD. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HUMMER H3. THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO START THE VEHICLE BUT IT WOULD NOT START. AFTER TEN MINUTES, THE VEHICLE STARTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE IT WAS REPAIRED (REPAIR DETAILS WERE NOT GIVEN). THE FAILURE CONTINUED TO OCCUR INTERMITTENTLY. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SEAT HEATER ON THE DRIVER'S SEAT WOULD INVOLUNTARILY TURN ON AND THE SEAT SHIFTED WHILE SHE MADE TURNS OR APPLIED THE BRAKES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE THE FAILURE WERE REPAIRED, HOWEVER THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 60,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 72,000.

I OWN A 2007 HUMMER H3 WITH 66000 MILES ON IT. IT HAS BEEN DIAGNOSED AS HAVING A BAD HEAD DUE TO THE USE OF SOFT METALS FOR THE CYLINDER SLEEVE. DUE TO THIS, THERE IS SUDDEN REDUCED POWER. THE COST OF THIS FIX IS ABOUT $4500.00. MY TRUCK BEGAN WITH A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON (AUTOZONE) SAID IT WAS A MISFIRE ON CYLINDER #5. I WENT TO THE LOCAL DEALER AND ASKED THEM TO LOOK AT THE TRUCK. THEY DIAGNOSED IT AS A #5 CYLINDER HAVING THE COMPRESSION LEAK OF 90%. IN LOOKING ON THE INTERNET (AT HUMMER FORUMS), I OBSERVED THAT QUITE A FEW HUMMER H3 OWNERS WERE WRITING IN ABOUT THEIR EXPERIENCE WITH MISFIRES AND BAD HEADS, AT ABOUT THE SAME MILEAGE. I THINK THIS NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO AND THAT GM SHOULD BE ORDERED TO DO A RECALL. THIS IS THE SAME PROBLEM THEY HAD WITH THE 3.5L ENGINES THEY USED IN THEIR PRE-2007 HUMMER H3 AND COLORADO. I AM GOING TO WRITE MY CONGRESS REP AND ASK THAT WITH THE PROBLEMS THAT GM IS HAVING RIGHT NOW, THAT THIS ALSO BE MOVED FORWARD AND THAT THEY ORDER AN INVESTIGATION. ANY OTHER HUMMER H3 OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS SHOULD DO THE SAME THING. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HUMMER H3. HIS REAR BRAKE DRUM CAUGHT ON FIRE . THE REAR BRAKE DRUM WAS LOCATED UNDER THE FUEL TANK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION. HE WAS ADVISED THEY WOULD NOT REPAIR THE VEHICLE UNDER WARRANTY BECAUSE HE MADE HIS TIRES SPIN TOO MUCH IN THE SNOW. HOWEVER WHILE IN SNOW HIS VEHICLE BECAME STUCK AND HE WAS TRYING TO GET OUT. GENERAL MOTORS WAS ALSO CONTACTED AND STATED THEY REVIEWED HIS CLAIM BUT WOULD NOT COVER THE REPAIR. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 31,000. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS 2007 HUMMER H3. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE IGNITION FAILED TO RECOGNIZED THE KEY, CAUSING THE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM TO ACTIVATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES WHO WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE WHO DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 98,000.

THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD TRANSMISSION ISSUES SINCE 25,000 MILES. NO CODE EVER INDICATED SO DEALERS WOULD NOT INVESTIGATE TRANSMISSION UNTIL 1ST AND 2ND GEARS FAILED. PROBLEM OF INCORRECT SHIFTING CONTINUED WITH SEVERAL STOPS AT THE DEALERSHIP. NO CODE NO SERVICE. NOW THE TRANSMISSION SLAMMED IN REVERSE INITIATING A CODE (SPEED SENSOR PASS/FAIL). AFTER AGREEING TO REPLACE THE PORTION OF THE TRANSMISSION THAT CONTAINS THE SHORTED SPEED SENSOR, IT WAS DISCOVERED THE TRANSMISSION WAS CONTAMINATED BY RADIATOR FLUID. NOW THE RADIATOR, NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY, ALSO MUST BE REPLACED WITH THE COMPLETE TRANSMISSION. RESEARCHING HUMMER FORUMS, THIS IS APPARENTLY A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE SPEED SENSOR AND RADIATOR CONTAMINATION THAT IS BEING IGNORED. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HUMMER H3. THE CONTACT WAS NOTIFIED THAT HIS VEHICLE CAUGHT FIRE WHILE PARKED IN THE GARAGE. THE FIRE ORIGINATED UNDER THE HOOD NEAR THE BATTERY AREA. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT FILED INCIDENT NUMBER 09060410 AND THE MANUFACTURER FILED CASE NUMBER 71-731425623, REFERENCE NUMBER 6744389. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 33,184.

"STAB TRACK SYSTEM FAILURE" COMES ON WHEN DRIVING, WHICH MAKES THE CAR LOSE POWER AND SPEED IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3TIMES IN ABOUT 6 WEEKS. DEALER CLAIMS THEY HAVE FIXED IT 3 TIMES, NOW THEY ADMIT THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE AND UNABLE TO FIX. SERVICE DEPT SAYS THEY CANNOT NARROW DOWN THE PROBLEM BUT THE COMPUTER DOES RECOGNIZE THAT IT IS A STABILITY CONTROL ISSUE. I AM AFRAID IT WILL DO THIS ON THE INTERSTATE AND I WILL BE RUN OVER OR KILLED BY TRAFFIC. *TR

BATTERY DISCHARGES SELF. HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP OVER 6 WEEKS. NOBODY KNOWS WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT. BEFORE THAT 2 TIME IT STOPPED SUDDENLY WHILE DRIVING 25 TO 50 MILES PER HOUR. *TR

I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT 3/22/2009, 2007 HUMMER H3, THE OTHER DRIVER LOST CONTROL AND HIS EXPLORER TRAVELED HORIZONTALLY ON FREEWAY 5, IN LOS ANGELES. I T BONED HIM I WAS TRAVELING 65 MPH AT TIME OF IMPACT. THE HUMMER WAS TOTALED THE FRONT END DAMAGED FATALLY. MY AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. I SUFFERED AND STILL SUFFER FROM A BACK INJURY I HAVE HAD 5 PROCEDURES TO MY BACK FOR PAIN AND NUMBNESS. I WAS THE DRIVER. MY HUSBAND WAS A PASSENGER AND HE REQUIRED KNEE SURGERY DUE TO AN INJURY CAUSED BY HITTING THE DASH. HE AND I BOTH STILL HAVE DAILY PAIN AND MY ABILITY TO PERFORM MY JOB HAS BEEN COMPROMISED. I CANNOT TAKE NARCOTIC PAIN MEDICATIONS SECONDARY TO MY JOB, SO I SUFFER DAILY. I HAVE PHOTOS OF THE BOTH VEHICLES INVOLVED. I THINK IF THE AIRBAGS WOULD HAVE DEPLOYED I AND MY HUSBAND MAY NOT HAVE HAD SUCH DAMAGING AND LONG TERM INJURIES. I HAVE RESEARCHED THAT THE 2006 HUMMER AIR BAGS ( CLOTH SEATS) HAD ISSUES. MY VEHICLE HAD CLOTH SEATS.THIS MAY NOT BE THE APPROPRIATE FORUM BUT I HAD A PAID SERVICE ONSTAR. THE ONSTAR SERVICE FAILED TO RESPOND AFTER THE ACCIDENT. I CALLED THEM ON MY CELL PHONE AND THEY STATED THEY WOULD CALL THE CHP. EVENTUALLY THE ONSTAR CALLED ME ON MY VEHICLE BUT THE TOW TRUCK AND CHP HAD ALREADY ARRIVED. . MY HUSBAND CALLED 911 IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE ACCIDENT. *TR

I HAD DROPPED MY DAUGHTER OFF AT SCHOOL THEN WENT TO THE GAS STATION AND I SMELLED SOMETHING LIKE IT WAS BURNING AND I THOUGHT IT WAS OUT SIDE. WHEN I CAME OUT OF THE GAS STATION THERE WAS SMOKE ROLLING OUT OF MY HUMMER . I HAD JUMPED IN AND MOVED THE VEHICLE AWAY FROM THE PUMPS SO THEY WOULD NOT BLOW UP AND HURT THE PATRONS AROUND US. THE FIRE DEPT CAME AND SO DID THE POLICE. THEY TOLD ME THAT THE BLOW HAD STARTED FROM BEHIND THE GLOVE COMPARTMENT AND WAS ON FIRE. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HUMMER H3. THE VEHICLE HAS BRIDGESTONE TIRES, DUELER A/T RH-S, SIZE P265/65/R18. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE TIRE BLEW OUT WITHOUT WARNING. THE RISK OF A CRASH SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASED. THE TIRE WAS REPLACED, BUT THE CONTACT STILL HAS POSSESSION OF THE OTHER THREE TIRES. THE MANUFACTURER DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 5,800.

THIS IS THE FIRST WINTER THIS VEHICLE HAS SEEN. ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS HAVE EITHER NOT WORKED OR STOPPED MIDCYCLE. THE FIRST INCIDENT WAS AT HOME. I HAVE AUTOSTART SO I STARTED MY CARD TO WARM THE VEHICLE AND THAW THE WINDSHIELD. APPROX. TWO HOURS LATER I WAS ABLE TO TURN ON MY WIPERS. THE SAME THING HAPPENED ON A SECOND OCCASION. ON DECEMBER 31,2008 DURING A STORM THAT CAUSED WHITE OUT CONDITIONS, MY WIPERS STOPPED LESS THAN 5 MINUTES INTO MY DRIVE HOME. THE DESIGN OF THE WIPERS CAUSES THE ARM THAT MOVES THE WIPER ITSELF TO FREEZE SOLID AND CANNOT BE UNFROZEN UNTIL YOU GET THE VEHICLE INTO A WARM ENVIRONMENT, UNLESS YOU'RE FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO HAVE AN ICE PICK OR BOILING WATER WITH YOU! THE VEHICLE HAS A SERIOUS DESIGN PROBLEM WITH THE WIPERS AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED. *TR

MY 2007 HUMMER H3 WAS T-BONED BY A POLICE CRUISER (MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS I BELIEVE) THAT WAS DOING 40+ MPH. NEITHER MY SIDE AIRBAGS NOR THE FRONT AIRBAGS OF THE CRUISER DEPLOYED. *TR

2007 HUMMER 3, BREAKS DOWN CONTINUOUSLY. *TR

ON NOVEMBER 2, 2008 AT APPROXIMATELY 9:30 PM, I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE AT THE LOCAL WAL-MART AND AS I TURNED RIGHT TO GET INTO THE SPACE I HEARD A LOUD BANG PROCEEDED WITH MY HUMMER H3 ABRUPTLY STOPPING. I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT HAD ACTUALLY HAPPENED AT THAT EXACT TIME AS I WAS MORE CONCERNED WITH THE SAFETY OF MY 11 YR OLD BROTHER. I CALLED ON STAR EMERGENCY SERVICES AND TOLD THEM I COULD NOT MOVE MY CAR AND WAS NOT FULLY AWARE OF WHAT HAD HAPPENED. THE WAL-MART SECURITY GUARD THAT WITNESSED THE ENTIRE INCIDENT, RUSHED TO THE VEHICLE TO CHECK IF WE WERE ALRIGHT AND ASKED IF I HAD REALIZED WHAT HAD HAPPENED TO MY CAR. I TOLD HIM NO AND WITH THE ON STAR REP STILL ON THE PHONE I GOT DOWN AND TO MY SURPRISE SAW THE STEERING COLUMN OF MY HUMMER HAD SNAPPED IN HALF. I WAS IN TOTAL DISBELIEF AND COULDN'T HELP BUT THINK HOW MY BROTHER AND I COULD HAVE FLIPPED OVER ON THE FREEWAY IF THIS INCIDENT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED ONE THE WAY TO WAL-MART. AFTER DESCRIBING TO ON STAR WHAT HAD HAPPENED, THE REPRESENTATIVE ASKED IF I COULD MOVE MY CAR OR IF IT WAS DRIVABLE, I TOLD HIM I WAS PRETTY MUCH STUCK WHERE I WAS AND COULDN'T EVEN MOVE OUT OF THE WAY OF THE TRAFFIC. I WAITED ALONG WITH THE SECURITY GUARD FOR A TOW TRUCK TO ARRIVE AND WAS THE TOW TRUCK GOT THERE I WROTE DOWN ALL THE INFORMATION I NEEDED FROM THE SECURITY GUARD AND WAS TOLD BY THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER THAT MY VEHICLE WOULD NOT BE TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP UNTIL THE FOLLOWING MORNING. THE NEXT MORNING I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND WAS TOLD THAT I HAD TO CONTACT GM BECAUSE MY BROTHER HAD BEEN HURT AT THE SCENE. I CONTACTED GM AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY WOULD SEND AN INDEPENDENT INSPECTOR TO TAKE A LOOK AT THE VEHICLE. AFTER WAITING FOR ALMOST 3 WEEKS I WAS TOLD BY THE GM REP, JORGE ABURTO THAT THE REPORT STATED THAT NO OUTSIDE FACTOR TO HAVE CAUSED WHAT HAD HAPPENED TO THE VEHICLE. ONCE GM GAVE THE OK TO START THE REPAIR ON THE H3 I WAS TOLD THEY HAD STOPPED BECAUSE THE DEALERSHIP IS NOW ACCUSING ME OF HITTING THE H3. *TR

MY VEHICLE IS A 2007 H3 HUMMER AND WAS NOT MANUFACTURED WITH REAR, CHILD SAFETY LOCKS FOR THE DOORS. THE DEALERSHIP, AS WELL AS THE MANUFACTURER ASSISTANCE NUMBER CAN NOT PROVIDE A RETRO FIT TO CORRECT THE ISSUE AND ONLY PROVIDED AN OPTION TO PURCHASE A NEW VEHICLE TO CORRECT THE ISSUE. I HAVE A 2 YR CHILD THAT CONTINUES TO OPEN THE DOOR WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN OPERATION. *TR

"STAB TRACK SYSTEM FAILURE" COMES ON WHEN DRIVING, WHICH MAKES THE CAR LOSE POWER AND SPEED IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. THIS HAS HAPPENED 4 TIMES IN ABOUT 6 WEEKS. DEALER CLAIMS THEY HAVE FIXED IT 4 TIMES, NOW THEY ADMIT THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE AND UNABLE TO FIX. *TR

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING THE POSTED SPEED LIMIT OF 45 MPH, WHEN ANOTHER DRIVER TURNED FROM A CROSS STREET INTO HER, CAUSING A HEAD ON COLLISION. FULL FRONTAL DAMAGE TO BOTH VEHICLES OCCURRED, AND THE AIRBAG IN OUR VEHICLE DID NOT DEPLOY. THE AIRBAG IN THE OTHER VEHICLE DID DEPLOY. ONSTAR WAS NOTIFIED OF THE ACCIDENT AS WELL AS LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT. THE OTHER DRIVER WAS DESIGNATED AS THE AT- FAULT DRIVER IN THE ACCIDENT. I DID CONTACT GM AND NOTIFIED THEM OF THE FAILURE OF THE AIRBAG TO DEPLOY, AND THEIR LEGAL DEPARTMENT CLAIMS THAT IF THE "CRUMPLE ZONES" DID THEIR JOBS THEN THE AIRBAG WOULD NOT DEPLOY, EVEN IN A HEAD ON COLLISION. OUR VEHICLE IS STILL AT THE TOW LOT, AND THE AIRBAG IS STILL INTACT. *TR

I HAVE A H3 2007 HUMMER, AND I AM HAVING TROUBLE SHIFTING, SO, I TOOK THE TRUCK TO THE DEALER FOUR TIMES AND THEY SAID THAT IS A NORMAL CONDITION. *TR

YESTERDAY MAVIS WAS VISITING OUR DAUGHTER (BRENDA) IN KILLEEN. BRENDA OWNS ONE OF THOSE FANCY H3 BURNT ORANGE HUMMERS WITH ALL THE DOODADS. IT LOOKS LIKE IT JUST ROLLED OFF OF FORT HOOD READY FOR WARFARE. IF FACT IT ATTACKED MY LOVELY DEMURE WIFE WITH NO PROVOCATION WHATSOEVER. NOW REALIZE I WAS DUTIFULLY WORKING AT MY JOB WHILE MAVIS WAS OUT BUT SHE SWEARS BY THE STORY AND AT ME. MAVIS AND BRENDA JUMP IN THE HUMMER TO GO SEE THE DOCTOR IN TEMPLE WHICH IS ABOUT A 20 MILE TRIP. BRENDA WAS DRIVING. SHORTLY AFTER LEAVING THE HOUSE MAVIS STARTS SQUIRMING AROUND IN THE SEAT COMPLAINING ABOUT HOW HOT THE SEAT WAS AND TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO TURN THE DARN SEAT HEATER OFF. SHE THOUGHT MAYBE SHE WAS HAVING HOT FLASHES. BRENDA PULLS OFF THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY AND RUNS AROUND THE HUMMER, HOPING NO ONE RUNS OVER THEM, TO TURN OFF THE SEAT HEATER. SHE TURNS THE HEATER OFF OR SO SHE THOUGHT. SHE HEADS DOWN THE ROAD AGAIN WHEN MAVIS HOLLERS THAT HER BOTTOM WAS BURNING OFF. SHE PULLS OFF THE ROAD AGAIN AND THEY FINALLY GET THE DARN THING TURNED OFF. THE SEAT AND MAVIS? BOTTOM START TO COOL DOWN. AFTER VISITING THE FAMILY DOCTOR THEY RETURNED TO KILLEEN AND MAVIS JUMPED IN OUR CAR TO HEAD FOR HOME. THE 2 HOUR TRIP FROM KILLEEN TO RED OAK TOOK NEARLY 6 HOURS. SOME KNOT HEAD DAMAGED A BRIDGE ON I35 SHUTTING DOWN THE HIGHWAY. I WAS WATCHING TV WHEN MAVIS GOT HOME AND SHE IMMEDIATELY RUNS IN THE BEDROOM PULLING DOWN HER SLACKS AND SHE SHOWS ME 1ST AND 2ND DEGREE BURNS ON THE BACK OF HER THIGHS AND HER BOTTOM. THE BURNS LOOK VERY PAINFUL AND VERY UGLY. I TOOK PICTURES. SOME PICTURES ARE OF THE BURNS. TODAY BRENDA CALLED GM TO INFORM THEM OF THE ATTACK. THEY THINK A HEAT SENSOR MUST HAVE FAILED BUT WE?LL KNOW MORE AFTER THEY TAKE A LOOK AT IT. IT?S AMAZING THAT NEITHER THE SEAT NOR HER CLOTHING SHOWED ANY HEAT DAMAGE. MAVIS IS DOING WELL BUT IS A BIT TENDER. SHE IS GOING TO BE SORE FOR A FEW DAYS. *JB

ON THE SUMMER OF 2007, I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AND I HAD TO PULLOVER TO THE SIDE BECAUSE MY HUMMER H3 STARTED OVERHEATED. I DID THE PROPER PROCEDURE OF REFILLING COOLANT TO MY CAR, BUT WITHIN 4 HOURS IT LEAKED. I WAS DRIVING FOR 30 MIN. WITH WINDOWS DOWN. NOT USING THE AIR CONDITIONER. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE I WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY AND SUPPOSEDLY "FIXED" THE PROBLEM. IT IS APRIL 2008 AND THE OTHER DAY MY CAR SHUT DOWN ON ME AGAIN BECAUSE MY CAR OVERHEATED.

I OWN A 2007 HUMMER H3. DRIVING HOME IN A SNOWSTORM LAST NIGHT, THE WIPERS STOPPED WORKING. I CALLED THE DEALER AND HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY TELL ME THAT SINCE THE AREA AROUND THE WIPER BLADES IS SO LARGE, THIS SHOULD BE EXPECTED AND THAT THEY HAD SEVERAL OTHER CALLS ON THE SAME ISSUE. I WAS IN A SNOW STORM AND COULD HAVE BEEN IN A SEVERE ACCIDENT. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. I BOUGHT THE H3 TO DRIVE IN THE WINTER, HOWEVER I DO NOT FEEL THAT IT IS SAFE TO DRIVE IN SNOW. NEED HELP FROM GM ON THIS ONE. *NM
