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.

AIR BAG LIGHT ON. UNABLE TO REMEDY ON OWN. DEALER FOUND CODES B0092 AND 23 IN DIAGNOSTIC. STATED NEEDED NEW PPS MODULE AND "NEEDS PASSENGER SEATBELT BUCKEL SENSOR AND RE-PROGRAMMING". ADVISED THAT PASSENGER AIR BAG MAY NOT EMPLOY DUE TO NEEDED REPLACEMENT. COST $140 FOR DIAGNOSIS; AND $1200 FOR SENSOR REPLACEMENT. BEING UNABLE TO AFFORD THIS COSTLY REPAIR, AND BELIEVING THIS TO BE A DEFECT IN THE HUMMER ITSELF, WE CONTACTED GM CUSTOMER SERVICE TO REPORT SAFETY ISSUE. THEY REFUSED TO REPLACE PART OR TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR FAULTY SENSOR. THERE HAD BEEN NO ACCIDENT OR REASON FOR DEPLOYMENT OF AIR BAG. SENSOR, FOR UNEXPLAINED REASONS, JUST STOP WORKING. AT THIS TIME, WE STILL HAVE NOT FIXED THIS. IN THE LAST SIX MONTHS, WE HAVE TALKED TO THREE SEPERATE OWNERS OF THE 2007 HUMMER H3, WHO ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM, AND HAVE HIT THE SAME WALL WITH GM. WE, AND THE OTHER OWNERS, CONSIDER THIS TO BE A EXTREME SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED, AND LEADING TO RECALL FOR FAULTY SENSORS.

I WAS LEAVING OUT OF MY SUBDIVISION AND MY SIDE CURTAIN SIDE CURTAIN AIR BAGS DEPLOYED (BOTH SIDES) WITHOUT ANY WARNING. LUCKILY, I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE BACK TO HOUSE. GM IS NOT GIVING ME THE NECESSARY INFORMATION TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE.

NO AIR WAS COMING OUT OF VENTS, FOUND THE PROBLEM WAS FAULTY WIRING WITH THE RESISTOR AND WIRE HARNESS BLOWER MOTOR BOTH WERE BURNT AND SMELL OF SOMETHING BURNING. *TR

WHILE DRIVING AT 65 MILES PER HOUR THE VEHICLE DASH LIT UP ALL SERVICE LIGHTS THE VEHICLE WENT INTO REDUCED POWER MODE NOT ALLOWING THE VEHICLE TO EXCEED 40 MPH AND ABS SENSORS CAME ON STAYING TRACTION FAIL, ABS FAIL, BEGAN TO STUTTER AND STALL. TOOK TO SHOP. VEHICLE RUNNING CODES FOR SPARK PLUGS, REPLACED SPARK PLUGS. FEW WEEKS LATER DID IT AGAIN, THIS TIME SAYING THROTTLE BODY. REPLACED IT, A MONTH LATER DID IT AGAIN, EACH TIME IN MAJOR TRAFFIC HAVING TO PULL OFF ROADWAY TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. THIS TIME SAYS MISFIRING, THROTTLE BODY, ABS,TPMS, THERMOSTAT, ETC. TAKE IT TO HAVE COMPRESSION TEST RUN AND SYSTEM SAYS CYLINDER FAILURE. DO RESEARCH ON ISSUE AND FIND THAT THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ONLINE HAVING CAUSED ACCIDENTS AND THOUSAND OF DOLLARS SPENT BY CONSUMERS AFTER HAVING ACCIDENTS BUT NO KNOWN FATALITY SO GM WILL NO RECALL OR HONOR THE ISSUE REPAIRS. ALMOST ALL OF THEM HAPPENING AT 100K MILES. *TR

I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE USED APPROXIMATELY 7 YEARS AGO. I WAS TAKING MY VEHICLE THROUGH AN AUTOMATED CAR WASH AND THE HOOD VENT CAME COMPLETELY OFF. I NOTICED THERE WAS A RECALL IN 2010 CONCERNING THIS PART BUT I NEVER GOT NOTIFICATION. WHEN I LOOK UP BY MY VIN, IT STATES NO RECALLS. WHY NOT? I NOTICED IT WAS LOOSE AT ONE LOWER CORNER AND ALREADY HAD DISCUSSED FIXING IT WITH THE BODY SHOP. I NEED THE HOOD VENT REPLACED NOW SINCE IT TORE THE LATCHES LOOSE FROM THE TOP. *TR

VEHICLE WOULD NOT START CALLED DEALERSHIP WHERE CAR WAS PURCHASED - REPLACED IGNITION SWITCH AFTER DIAGNOSIS. SINCE THEN HAVE HAD REPEATED EPISODES OF VEHICLE IGNITION/ELECTRICAL JUST SHUTTING COMPLETELY DOWN ON DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. I COULD BE SITTING OR APPROACHING A STOP LIGHT VEHICLE SHUTS DOWN UPON TAKING OFF OR IDLING DOWN, VEHICLE ALSO SHUTS DOWN WHEN MAKING TURNS AS WELL. IT OCCURS SO INFREQUENTLY AND HAS NO PATTERN BUT IT IS INDEED A SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE I HAVE TO PUT ON THE FLASHERS AND TAKE TIME TO RESTART THE ENGINE ALL BEFORE SOMEONE RUNS INTO ME. *TR
