2008 HUMMER H3 Complaints

AS MANY HAVE EXPLAINED BEFORE, MY BLOWER MOTOR ALL OF A SUDDEN WENT OUT I STARTED TO READ ONLINE WHAT IT MIGHT BE AND FOUND THAT EVERYONE COMPLAINED OF RESISTOR HARNESS WIRE BURNING OUT OR THE PLASTIC MELTING. AND JUST AS EVERYONE SAID I PULLED OUT THE HARNESS AND IT WAS BURN COMPLETELY OUT. GM THIS REALLY NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED, HOW MANY PEOPLE NEED COMPLAIN, OR SOMETHING POSSIBLY HAPPEN TO SOMEONE BEFORE YOUR COMPANY TAKES ACTION, WITH ALL THE RECALLS GOING ON WITH YOUR COMPANY YOU WOULD THINK YOU GUYS WOULD LEARN. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ALONG AND THERE WAS SMOKE COMING FROM BELOW PASSENGER SIDE UNDER THE GLOVE BOX. PULL OVER AND SAW IT WAS A RESISTOR WITH TWO SCREWS. IT WAS BURNT, I UNPLUGGED AND DROVE HOME. THEN SEARCHED INTERNET AND THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ASAP, BEFORE SOMEONE DIES IN A FIRE. *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 HUMMER H3. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ENGINE WOULD NOT START. THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT THE PROBLEM WAS INTERMITTENT AND THAT THE SECURITY SENSOR LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 52,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 HUMMER H3. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE ATTEMPTING TO TURN THE VEHICLE OFF THE KEY BECAME STUCK INSIDE THE IGNITION SWITCH AND THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO TURN THE VEHICLE OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER BUT THE DEFECT COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED AND NO REPAIRS WERE PERFORMED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DEFECT CONTINUED TO OCCUR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 38,000.

I HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AS HUNDREDS OF OTHERS WITH GM'S FAULTY BLOWER MOTOR RESISTOR. THE BLOWER MOTOR RESISTOR AND WIRING HARNESS HAVE FAILED 2 TIMES NOW. MELTING TO EACH OTHER. LUCKILY NO FIRE, YET. THESE ARE EXPENSIVE VEHICLES, AND GM SHOULD OWN UP TO THE DESIGN FLAW AND ISSUE A RECALL, AND OR OFFER A REPAIR KIT THAT TRULY FIXES THE FLAW THAT OWNERS CAN INSTALL AS THE LOCATION IS FAIRLY EASY TO GET TO AND WORK ON IT. THE PURCHASERS OF THESE VEHICLES SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PUT UP WITH THIS QUALITY FLAW, AND RISK THEMSELVES, FAMILY AND FRIENDS. GM - DO THE RIGHT THING AND AVOID MAJOR LAWSUITS. *TR

MY RADIATOR CRACKED AND I WAS TOLD AND HAVE READ THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE H3 HUMMERS AND CHEVY COLORADO . *TR

WE PRACTICED WINCHING TECHNIQUES WITH SNO CTY SEARCH AND RESCUE. MY VEHICLE WAS BEING WINCHED UP A HILL. WHEN WE FINISHED OUR PRACTICE, I NOTICE THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT ON THE DASH WAS ILLUMINATED. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A GM DEALERSHIP WHO SOLD HUMMERS AND HAD THE VEHICLE DIAGNOSED. THEY STATED THAT THE ROLLOVER SENSOR HAD INDICATED DEPLOYMENT. THE VEHICLE DID NOT ROLL, NOR DID THE SRS SYSTEM DEPLOY. THEY RECOMMENDED REPLACEMENT OF THE ROLLOVER SENSOR. I HAD THEM FULLY TEST THE SYSTEM TO BE CERTAIN THAT THE $500.00 PART WOULD SOLVE THE PROBLEM. I HAD THEM REPLACE THE SENSOR WITH GM APPROVED PARTS BOUGHT FROM THE DEALERSHIP. AFTER THE REPAIR, THE MECHANIC STATED THAT HE THOUGHT THERE WAS AN ELECTRICAL FAULT WITH THE SENSOR - BUT HAD NO WAY OF TESTING THE CIRCUITS; NOR THE WILLINGNESS TO TRY A PART HE FIXED BECAUSE IT COULD DEPLOY THE SYSTEM. THE LIGHT IS ON AGAIN (THE REPAIR WAS COMPLETED JUNE 11, 2013). I TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP, WHERE THEY PULLED THE ENTIRE DASH APART AND TESTED ALL THE CIRCUITS. THEY DID NOT FIND A DEFINITE CAUSE. THEY RECOMMENDED THAT WE USE DIELECTRIC GREASE ON THE CONNECTIONS. THEY INDICATED THAT IF THAT DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM, THE NEXT "REPAIR" WOULD BE REPLACE THE AIRBAG ITSELF (ROUGHLY $800.00). THIS IS WHERE I AM AT TODAY - THE LIGHT IS ILLUMINATED AGAIN; GM HAS BASICALLY WASHED THEIR HANDS OF THE VEHICLE (THERE IS NO WARRANTY SO ALL OF THIS IS COMING OUT OF MY POCKET); AND THEY WANT TO "TRY" TO REPLACE THE AIRBAG. I'M NOW CONCERNED THAT THE ROLLOVER SENSOR WAS NOT AT FAULT; RATHER, THERE IS AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM WITH THE SRS SYSTEM. I THINK THE DEALERSHIP HAS DONE THE BEST THEY CAN - BUT WITHOUT GM'S PARTICIPATION IN THE SOLUTION; I THINK I WILL BE CONTINUALLY THROWING PARTS AND STILL NOT FINDING THE PROBLEM. GM CAN TEST THESE PARTS; THEY HAVE THE SCHEMATICS; CHARTS; AND IP TO ALLOW THEM TO FIND THE ISSUE. *TR

SUNROOF DRAINS COLLECT WATER AND THERE IS MOISTURE INSIDE THE VEHICLE. BASED ON THE DEALERSHIP REVIEW IT IS DUE TO A FAULTY DESIGN OF THE DRAINS DUE TO THE RESTRICTIONS AT BOTH FRONT AND REAR. *TR

RADIATOR END TANK RUPTURED RELEASING COOLANT ON EVERYTHING UNDER THE HOOD AND GETTING ON THE WINDSHIELD. RESEARCH OF THIS FINDS THAT THERE IS A DEFECT IN THE DESIGN OF THE FACTORY RADIATOR WHICH GM REFUSES TO TAKE ACTION ON. HAD THIS HAPPENED AT HIGHER SPEEDS, THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A MUCH WORSE SITUATION. *TR

CASUALLY DRIVING DOWN THE FREAKING ROAD WHEN ALL SIDE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED FOR NO REASON! ME AND MY FRIEND BOTH SUFFERED BRUSING ON OUR FACES! *TR
