I DROVE OVER A POTHOLE GOING 15MPH AND MY ROLLOVER AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. ALL 4 WHEELS WERE ON THE GROUND AND THERE WAS NO ROLLOVER. THE VEHICLE NEVER BROKE 5 DEGREES FROM UPRIGHT. THIS HAPPENED ON RAMPART RANGE ROAD IN WOODLAND PARK, CO. *TR

DRIVER WAS DRIVING AND STARTED TO SMELL SOMETHING BURNING AS SHE WAS DRIVING THE CAR. SHORTLY AFTER SHE BEGIN TO SEE SMOKE EMITTING FROM UNDER THE GLOVE BOX. THEN SPARKS BEGIN TO DROP ONTO THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE FLOOR. SHE PROCEEDED TO EXIT THE VEHICLE AS THE SMOKE AND SPARKS WERE INTENSIFYING. EVENTUALLY THE ENTIRE CABIN WAS ENGULFED IN FLAMES. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS CALLED. *TR

I WAS PREPARING FOR HEAD ON CRASH SO I COVERED MY FACE FROM ALL THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYING BUT THE ONLY ONE THAT CAME OUT WAS THE LOW IMPACT ON THE STEERING WHEEL !! MY INJURIES TO HEAD MAY BE MORE SERIOUS THEN I THOUGHT BECAUSE NEURO TESTS ARE BEING DONE !! THERE WAS BEEN NO RECALLS FOR AIRBAGS FOR THE H3T BUT IT WAS DURING THE RECESSION THEY WERE BUILT AND I BELIEVE TOTAL PRODUCTION IN BOTH YEARS WAS OVER 5000 SO VERY UNLIMITED AND POSSISBLY COULD BE THE FIRST ONE IN AN ACCIDENT !!

P2135 THROTTLE/PEDAL POSITION SENSOR/SWITCH A/B VOLTAGE CORRELATION THAT PUTS THE VEHICLE INTO ?STABILITRAK DISABLED", "TRACTION CONTROL DISABLED", AND "REDUCED ENGINE POWER". WHILE THERE IS A TSB#11-06-04-007B REGARDING THIS ISSUE AND WARRANTY COVERAGE; UNFORTUNATELY IT DOES NOT APPLY TO MY ENGINE. HOWEVER, SINCE THIS IS A WIDELY KNOW ISSUE, AND THIS VEHICLE IS EXPERIENCING THE SAME CONDITIONS, ONE WOULD THINK THAT MY VEHICLE WOULD BE SERVICED UNDER THIS TSB EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERAGE. 12/04/2014: FIRST SERVICE ATTEMPT: CLEAR CODE EVERYTHING TESTS FINE, LET?S SEE IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN. 12/10/2014: SECOND SERVICE ATTEMPT: BOTH THROTTLE BODY AND ACC PEDAL POSITION SENSOR TESTED "GOOD". WEAK BATTERY - REPLACE BATTERY. 12/22/2014: THIRD SERVICE ATTEMPT: TECH REPLACED ACCELERATOR PEDAL. RELEARNED THROTTLE/IDLE. 12/26/2014: FORTH SERVICE ATTEMPT: RELEARNED THROTTLE/IDLE PROCEDURE. 01/13/2015: FIFTH SERVICE ATTEMPT: REPROGRAM AND APPLY 6 UPDATES TO ECM. 01/14/2015: CODE THROWN AGAIN: DEALERSHIP ADVISING TO REPLACE THROTTLE BODY (BUT UNCERTAIN THAT THIS WILL FIX THE PROBLEM)? *TR

2009 HUMMER H3. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO SEVERAL ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS AND OTHER VEHICLE ISSUES. CONSUMER HAS PREVIOUS COMPLAINT WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE LISTED IN ARTEMIS. *SMD *CN

LETTER FROM SENATOR DURBIN ON BEHALF OF CONSTITUENT RE GM 2009 FAULTY HUMMER H3 WINDSHIELD. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED WATER STARTED LEAKING INSIDE THE VEHICLE. WATER ENTERED THE COMPUTER SYSTEM AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START FOR 20 MINUTES AND ALL OF THE LIGHTS STARTED BLINKING ON THE DASHBOARD. THE CONSUMER WAS INFORMED, THE WINDSHIELD WAS NEVER GLUED WHEN THE VEHICLE LEFT THE FACTORY.

ONE DAY WHEN I WENT TO TURN ON THE AIR CONDITIONER, THE AC WOULDN'T COME ON. WHEN I TURNED THE CONTROL KNOB TO 4, I COULD HEAR A CLICKING UNDER THE GLOVE BOX. ON CERTAIN DAYS THE BLOWER MOTOR WOULD WORK AND SOMETIMES IT WOULD QUIT RANDOMLY WHILE OPERATING. UPON INSPECTION I DISCOVERED THE BLOWER MOTOR RESISTOR HAD BECOME HOT AND MELTED TO THE CONNECTOR CAUSING CHAR TO BUILD UP INSIDE THE CONNECTION. *TR

I STARTED THE IGNITION, TURNED UP THE BLOWER FAN SPEED, AND THE CABIN FILLED WITH SMOKE WHICH SMELLED OF BURNING PLASTIC AND ELECTRICAL WIRES. BLOWER FAN DID NOT FUNCTION, AND UPON FOLLOWING THE SMELL AND SMOKE, I TRACED THE PROBLEM TO A RED ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR DIRECTLY UNDER THE GLOVE BOX. THE CONNECTOR CONNECTS TO THE BLOWER MOTOR RESISTOR AND HAD MELTED INTO THE RESISTOR UNIT FUSING BOTH PARTS TOGETHER IN ONE LARGE PIECE OF BURNT PLASTIC. THE ORANGE WIRE, (THE LARGEST GAUGE WIRE ON THE CONNECTOR), HAD MELTED BACK AWAY FROM THE CONNECTOR AS WELL EXPOSING BARE WIRE. *TR

ISSUE WITH BLOWER NOT GETTING POWER; CANNOT GET HEAT OR AIR CONDITIONING WITHOUT BLOWER, FUSES WERE CHECKED, HEATER RESISTOR CHECKED, SWITCH SEEMS GOOD (SUCH THE AIR CONDITIONING LIGHT WILL COME ON WHEN THE SWITCH IS ON BUT NO BLOWER), WIRING HARNESS LOOKS GOOD, BLOWER SEEMS TO HAVE A POSSIBLE INTERMITTENT PROBLEM AS THE BLOWER STOPPED WORKING LAST SPRING BUT WORKED A COUPLE TIMES IN THE FALL. STILL DON'T KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. THERE ARE A LOT OF BLOWER ISSUES ON-LINE SUCH AS HUMMER FORUMS AND COLORADO TRUCKS. *TR

ON 4/24/14, MY WIFE WAS DRIVING OUR 2009 HUMMER H3 DOWN OUR DRIVEWAY WITH OUR 2 YOUNGER BOYS INSIDE. BEFORE THE END OF THE DRIVEWAY, BOTH THE DRIVER SIDE AND PASSENGER SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. SHE WAS GOING BETWEEN 5MPH AND 10MPH AND DID NOT HIT ANYTHING. THE AIRBAG MISSED OUR 7 YEAR OLD AND GRAZED OUR 9 YEAR OLDS HEAD. THANK GOD THEY WERE TOO SHORT. HOWEVER, THE AIRBAG DID HIT MY WIFE HARD IN THE SIDE OF THE HEAD, NECK AND SHOULDER AND KNOCKED HER OVER TO THE CENTER CONSOLE. SHE WAS BRUISED, DAZED, SWOLLEN, HAD BURN MARKS ON HER NECK AND COULD NOT HEAR OUT OF HER LEFT EAR. NOW THE HEADLINER IS DESTROYED, THE SEATBELTS ARE LOCKED UP AND USELESS AND THE SUNROOF LEAKS. I FILED A CLAIM WITH MY INSURANCE COMPANY AND THEY SAID THAT THEY WILL NOT COVER IT BUT WILL LOOK AT IT BEFORE MAKING A FINAL DECISION BECAUSE THE ISSUE WAS "MECHANICAL". I ALSO HAVE A CLAIM OPEN WITH GM CUSTOMER CARE AND ARE WAITING FOR THE RESULTS, BUT IT DOES NOT SOUND GOOD. AFTER SEARCHING THE INTERNET, I HAVE FOUND SEVERAL INSTANCES WHERE OTHER HUMMER OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME THING AND SUGGESTED FILING A COMPLAINT HERE. PLEASE HELP AS WE NOW ARE PAYING FOR A VEHICLE AND INSURANCE THAT IS NOT ABLE TO BE DRIVEN. THANK YOU. *TR

I WAS ON MY WAY HOME FROM DROPPING OFF A FRIEND AND JUST BEFORE I TURNED INTO MY STREET I HIT A POT HOLE AND I'VE HIT THIS POT HOLE MANY TIMES AS IT IS BEFORE MY STREET. BUT THIS TIME THE SIDE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED, ONSTAR CONTACTED ME IMMEDIATELY TO SEE IF I NEEDED ASSISTANCE I DECLINED, I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER THE NEXT DAY AND REPORTED IT TO GM AS WELL. *TR

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING TO WORK AND THE REDUCED POWER ALARM CAME ON THE CAR WAS JUST DRIVING LIKE IT WAS GOING TO SHUT DOWN.., *TR

VEHICLE WILL NOT CRANK UP DUE TO FAULTY PASS LOCK-SECURITY SYSTEM. AFTER 10 MINUTES, THE SYSTEM WILL RESET AND START. AT THE BEGINNING, THIS WAS INFREQUENT, HOWEVER, AS OF LATE, THIS PROBLEM BECOMES VERY PERSISTENT, SEVERAL TIMES A WEEK. GM HAS RECALLED MANY OTHER GM VEHICLES WITH FAULTY IGNITION IN 2014 FOR GM VEHICLES MADE DURING THE SAME YEARS AS MY VEHICLE. GM DID NOT RECALL HUMMER AND SHOULD HAVE.

AS IN THE OTHER REPORTS, MY VEHICLE HAD SAME ELECTRICAL SHORT AND FIRE UNDER PASSENGER GLOVE BOX AREA. HERE IS THE TECHNICIAN REPAIR NOTES WHICH COMPLETELY VERIFY THERE IS AN ENGINEERING PROBLEM WITH A/C AND HEATER BLOWER MOTOR ELECTRICAL CONFIGURATION: VERIFIED CUSTOMER CONCERN, OPENED AND REMOVED GLOVE BOX, REMOVED BLOWER MOTOR RESISTER (2FASTNERS) FROM HVAC BOX,INSPECTED RESISTOR, ATTEMPTED TO UNPLUG RESISTOR, CONNECTORS STUCK TOGETHER, FORCED CONNECTORS APART, FOUND THEY WERE MELTED TOGETHER DUE TO SHORT IN HVAC SYSTEM. INSTALLED NEW HARNESS: 25949869 INSTALLED NEW RESISTOR: 10397098 BLOWER MOTOR HVAC SYSTEM NOW OPERABLE; UNKNOWN REASON FOR SHORT.

WHILE DRIVING ON A HOT DAY I NOTICED AN ODOR OF SMOLDERING WIRE COMING THRU THE BLOWER VENTS. I PULLED OVER ON THE HIGHWAY AND CHECKED UNDER THE HOOD. I NOTICED THE BLOWER MOTOR WAS HOT AND MELTING.FORTUNATELY THERE WAS ONLY SMOKE AND NO FIRE. I TURNED OFF THE A/C BLOWER (WHICH WAS NOW NOT WORKING) AND TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL A/C REPAIR STATION FOR AN ESTIMATE. THE VEHICLE WAS PAST WARRANTY SO THE REPAIR STATION REPLACED THE MELTED BLOWER MOTOR, RESISTOR AND HARNESS USING GENUINE GM PARTS. THIS IS THE FIRST INCIDENT AND PERTAINS TO GM RECALL #15042, NTHSA CAMPAIGN ID 15V421. ON AUGUST 13, 2015 THE BLOWER MOTOR STOPPED WORKING. I TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE REPAIR SHOP THAT REPLACED THE FIRST MOTOR AND WAS INFORMED THAT IT WAS THE SAME PROBLEM AND THAT A RECALL FOR THIS HAD BEEN ISSUED. I PHONED THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THEY HAVE NO PARTS FOR THIS RECALL AND I WOULD HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL THEY BECAME AVAILABLE. I CALLED GM DIRECT AND WAS ON HOLD FOR 90 MINUTES BEFORE GIVING UP. I AUTHORIZED THE LOCAL REPAIR SHOP TO REPLACE THE MELTED RESISTOR WITH AFTERMARKET PARTS AND HAVE THE DEFECTIVE RESISTOR IN MY POSSESSION. I HAVE RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FROM GM. I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THESE INCIDENTS ON RECORD WITH THE NTHSA.

THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO THE DEALER @ CITY CADILLAC MORE THAN A 12 TIMES & THEY STILL HAVE NOT FIXED THE 1ST (#15042) OR 2ND RECALL (#14582). THE TRUCK HAS VISIBILITY, ELECTRICAL, STEERING, LEAKING & MOTOR MOUNT ISSUES JUST TO SAY THE LEAST PLUS I AM A DISABLED US MARINE VETERAN WHO WAS SHOT IN DESERT STORM AND I REALLY NEED MY VEHICLE TO GET AROUND ESPECIALLY SINCE I HAVE HANDICAP LICENSE PLATES FOR MY SPECIAL NEEDS. CAN YOU PLEASE HELP???????
