HUMMER Complaints

REPEAT NO START DUE TO FAULTY SECURITY SYSTEM. HAD TO GO TO EMERGENCY ROOM AND COULD NOT GO DUE TO FAULTY SECURITY OR "PASS LOCK" ISSUE AND THIS IS APPARENTLY KNOWN. WHY IS THERE NO RECALL, THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 HUMMER H3. WHILE THE CONTACT'S SON WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TURNED OFF. THE VEHICLE RESTARTED AFTER A COUPLE OF ATTEMPTS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THERE WAS ENGINE AILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE, BUT DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 107,000.

TAKATA RECALL. I WAS DRIVING BETWEEN 10-15 MPH ON A SIDE ROAD APPROACHING A STOP SIGN TO GET ONTO THE MAIN HIGHWAY AND THE SIDE AIRBAGS ON BOTH SIDES DEPLOYED ON THEIR OWN. NOTHING HIT THE VEHICLE TO CAUSE THEM TO RELEASE. IT LOCKED UP MY FRONT SEAT BELTS ALSO. I CUT THE AIRBAGS OUT TO BE ABLE TO SEE TO DRIVE HOME, AND WAS ABLE TO PULL THE DRIVER'S SEAT BELT AROUND ME ENOUGH TO MAKE IT HOME. I CALLED MY INSURANCE COMPANY AND THEN CALLED THE LOCAL HUMMER DEALER TO LEAVE A MESSAGE FOR THEM TO RETURN MY CALL. MY INSURANCE COMPANY TOLD ME IT WOULD BE A DEALER ISSUE, AND NOTHING THEY WOULD COVER, BUT ADVISED ME TO GO TO MY LOCAL INSURANCE AGENT AND TALK WITH THEM ON MONDAY. THIS IS SATURDAY, JULY 16, 2016 AND NEITHER THE INSURANCE COMPANY OR THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT OF THE DEALERSHIP IS OPEN UNTIL MONDAY. I AM NOT SURE WHAT HAPPENED, BUT BELIEVE THAT THERE IT MAY BE CONNECTED TO FAULTY SENSORS ON THE SIDE AIRBAGS.

WHILE DRIVING ON A GRAVEL ROAD UPWARDS ON A GRAVEL ROAD (NOT A LEGAL STREET) GOING UNDER 10MPH, THE SIDE UPPER AIRBAGS DEPLOYED BY THEMSELVES WITHOUT BEING IN AN ACCIDENT OR ANYTHING BEING STRUCTURALLY DAMAGED. I WAS DAZED, AND MIGHT OF HAD A SLIGHT CONCUSSION. THE PASSENGER WAS KNOCKED UNCONSCIOUS, AND HER RIBS AND BACK HURT. I HAVE READ ON MANY FORUMS THAT THIS SIMILAR SITUATION HAS OCCURRED. THERE ARE MORE SITUATIONS BUT PLEASE READ BELOW. THESE VEHICLES ARE MADE TO DO CLIMB 60 DEGREE ANGLES, I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THERE ARE SO MANY INSISTENCE THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED. THIS IS NOT SAFE AT ALL!! BELOW ARE JUST A FEW I FOUND ON THE INTERNET.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HUMMER H3. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, AN UNKNOWN CLANKING NOISE WAS HEARD FROM THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE RECURRED CONSTANTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 134,000.

MY CAR WILL NOT START DUE TO THE PASS LOCK ENGAGING WHEN I GO TO START THE VEHICLE. I HAVE TO WAIT 10 TO 15 MINUTES FOR PASS LOCK TO RESET AND THEN IT WILL START. MY CAR IS ALWAYS PARKED WHEN THIS PROBLEM OCCURS. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN ON GOING FOR A YEAR NOW, STARTED ONCE A MONTH AND NOW IT'S EVERY 2 WEEKS.

WHILE THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY AND UPON ENTERING THE VEHICLE, THE VEHICLE WILL RANDOMLY NOT PERMIT YOU TO START THE VEHICLE. AFTER SEARCHING ONLINE ON SEVERAL FORUMS, I SEE THAT THOUSANDS UPON THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE WITH HUMMER MODELS, NOT JUST THE H3. IT SEEMS THAT THE IGNITION IS BELIEVING YOU ARE A BURGLAR, AND IT LOCKS YOU OUT FOR 10 MINUTES. AFTER THE 10 MINUTES HAVE PASSED, YOU CAN START THE CAR WITH NO PROBLEM. THE ONLY WAY TO GET AROUND THIS (PER GM) IS TO REPLACE THE IGNITION, BUT SINCE THERE ARE SO MANY COMPLAINTS OF THIS I BELIEVE IT SHOULD BE A RECALL INSTEAD OF CONSUMERS HAVING TO PAY FOR THIS FLAW.
