WHILE DRIVING MY 2006 HUMMER H3 ON A BACK COUNTRY PAVED RD, DOING THE POSTED SPEED LIMIT, MY SIDE CURTAIN AIR BAGS ON BOTH SIDES DEPLOYED FOR NO REASON. THE ROAD HAD ITS BUMPS AND STUFF LIKE ANY ROAD BUT NOTHING TO CRAZY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT IN A CRASH OR ROLLING OVER AND SHOULD NOT HAVE DEPLOYED AIRBAGS. THIS SITUATION COULD HAVE BEEN DEADLY, THANK GOD IT WASN'T. GM IS SENDING OUT A THIRD PARTY INSPECTOR TO LOOK AT THE VEHICLE. I HAVE A FEELING THIS WILL END UP IN COURT. THERE HAS BEEN MANY OF THESE CASES AND GM HAS NOT CORRECTED WITH RECALL OR NOTHING. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE AND FORCE THEM TO DO THE NEEDED RECALL ON THIS. *TR

BLOWER MOTOR FOR HVAC STOPPED WORKING, SMELLED BURNING PLASTIC, WIRING AND RESISTOR BURNED UP. IT IS LOCATED UNDER THE DASH AND IS VERY EASY TO CATCH FIRE, THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ON THIS WITH THE CHEVY & GM PRODUCT. I THINK THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL IT IS VERY DANGEROUS AS MANY ITEMS CAN BURN UP, GM IS OF NO HELP WITH THIS. *TR

AS I WAS LEAVING WORK THE OTHER DAY, MY HUMMER H3 LOST ITS A/C. AS I CHECKED IT OUT I FOUND THAT THE A/C PUMP WOULD TURN ON, BUT THERE WAS NOTHING BLOWING THRU THE VENTS. AS I DID AN INTERNET SEARCH I FOUND A BLOG REGARDING THIS VERY PROBLEM, IT SEEMS TO BE AN ISSUE WITH A RESISTOR AND CONNECTOR IN THE BLOWER SYSTEM. IT MELTS AND BECOMES USELESS. THIS IS NOT ONLY AN INCONVENIENCE AT 100 PLUS DEGREES, IT IS A FIRE HAZARD AS WELL. I BELIEVE THIS NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO. *TR
