DRIVER SEATBELT GETS STUCK AND I CAN'T GET OUT. CAR WON'T START. WAIT TEN MINUTES WITH THE KEY IN FIRST POSITION THEN IT STARTS. IT WILL TAKE SOME GIRL LIKE MYSELF STUCK IN A DARK PARKING LOT WITH A CAR THAT DOESN'T START FOR TEN MINUTES.

WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET AT APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH THE VEHICLE STARTED MAKING A LOUD NOISE (SIMILAR TO THE SOUND A DIRT BIKE ENGINE MAKES). THE SOUND BECAME LOLUDER WHEN I PRESSED THE BRAKES. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE REPAIR SHOP AND WAS NOTIFIED THAT THE HYDROBOOSTER FAILED RESULTING IN A STEERING FLUID LEAKAGE.

THE SDM (SENSING AND DIAGNOSTIC MODULE) ON MY 2005 HUMMER H2 IS NOT WORKING AND IS CAUSING MY AIR BAGS TO NOT WORK, AND ALSO CAUSES OTHER MODULES TO NOT BE ABLE TO COMMUNICATE AND CAUSE MY GAUGES AND OTHER ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIES TO NOT OPERATE (WINDOWS, LOCKS, ETC.) MANY OTHER HUMMER H2 OWNERS ARE HAVING THIS SAME PROBLEM. A NEW SDM WOULD FIX THE ISSUE, BUT GM FOR SOME REASON HAS DISCONTINUED MANUFACTURING THIS MODULE. WHY WOULD GM STOP MAKING A SAFETY RELATED ITEM FOR VEHICLES THAT ARE ONLY AROULD 10 YEARS OLD WITH MANY STILL ON THE ROAD. SO, NOW WE MUST DRIVE IT WITH THE AIR BAGS MOST LIKELY NOT GOING TO DEPLOY IN A CRASH.

THIS COMPLAINT IS CONCERNING THE PASS LOCK SYSTEM ON MY HUMMER H3. MY H3 HAS BEEN NOT STARTING DUE TO THE VEHICLE THINKING IT IS BEING STOLEN. IT HAS BECOME A FREQUENT PROBLEM AND IS REALLY FRUSTRATING. WHEN IT FIRST STARTED HAPPENING IT WAS, MAYBE 6 MONTHS BEFORE IT HAPPENED AGAIN. NOW, IT IS HAPPENING AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK. THIS MORNING I NEEDED TO BRING MY DAUGHTER TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM FOR AN EXTREMELY HIGH FEVER AND MY VEHICLE WOULD NOT START AGAIN. I HAD TO WAIT ABOUT 10 MINUTES BEFORE I COULD GET MOVING. THIS HAS BECOME THE NORM. TRUCK WON'T START, WAIT 10 MINUTES AND TRY AGAIN; TRUCK STARTS. THIS IS EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING AND REALLY AN INCONVENIENCE.
