HUMMER Complaints

ON MARCH 20, 2016 WE HEAR A VERY LOUD BANG IN THE REAR OF THE HUMMER.. REAR MAIN LEAF SPRING BROKE OFF. WE ALSO HAVE THE LOUD BANG WHEN YOU PUT THE VEHICLE IN DRIVE. BOTH ARE BEING INVESTIGATED BY GM ENGINEERS @[email protected]. THIS VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN SOLD BY THE DEALER AUTO SERV OF TILTON, NH. THEY WILL NOT MAKE GOOD ON THIS VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE AT THE TIME WAS LITERALLY GOING 15 MILES PER HOUR. CAN YOU IMAGINE IF WE WERE ON THE HIGHWAY!! WE HAVE THE OLD LEAF SPRINGS HOME WITH US FOR PROOF.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 HUMMER H3. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE, IT FAILED TO START INITIALLY. THE VEHICLE FELT AS IF IT HAD A DELAYED START. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BATTERY FAILED AND WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHERE IT WAS REPEATEDLY DIAGNOSED THAT THE BATTERY WAS THE REASON FOR THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BATTERY WAS CHANGED A TOTAL OF THREE TIMES IN FOUR YEARS, BUT THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE DEALER MENTIONED A MANUFACTURER'S RECALL FOR THE WIRING FOR THE CONTACT'S YEAR, MAKE, AND MODEL, BUT INSISTED THAT THERE WERE NO OTHER RECALLS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,000.

FIRST THE ENTIRE COMPUTER SYSTEM STOPPED WORKING. HAD TO REPLACE THR PCM. THEN MY BLOWER STARTED THROWING HOT AIR WHEN ON COLD. HAD TO INSTALL SEPARATE TO RESOLVE THAT ISSUE. HAD TO RE-BUILD THE TRANSMISSION TWICE DUE TO LEAK OF COOLANT INTO THE TRANSMISSION. THIS TRUCK HAS BEEN A NIGHTMARE SO FAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HUMMER H3. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BLOWER MOTOR FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V421000 (VISIBILITY) HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE RECALL REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER HAD EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HUMMER H3. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE WHEEL BEGAN TO WOBBLE WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE LEAF SPRING FRACTURED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 42,000.

SOMETIMES WHEN I GO TO START MY CAR IT WILL NOT START. THEN I WAIT EXACTLY 10 MINUTES AND IT STARTS RIGHT UP. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR ABOUT FOUR YEARS NOW. IT HAPPENS ABOUT SIX TIMES A MONTH

I KEEP GETTING A CODE THAT STATES THAT MY TRUCK RUNS WITH A LOW ENGINE TEMPERATURE. PLUS MY TRUCK HAS HAD A LEAK FROM SOME WHERE AROUND THE LOWER WINDSHIELD THAT IS CAUSING ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS AND SOAKING WET FLOORS! WE HAD A MECHANIC LOOK FOR THE LEAK AND TRY TO FIX THIS ISSUE BUT WAS UNABLE TO FIND THE PROBLEM AND WE WERE ALSO TOLD BY A FEW DEALERSHIP THAT THEY HAVE SEEN A LOT OF H3 HUMMERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM! ALSO WE ARE HAVING ISSUES THAT CAUSES THE TRACTION SIGNAL TO COME ON REGULARLY AND IT CAUSES MY TRUCK TO LOCK UP. IT HAS ALMOST CAUSED US TO WRECK SEVERAL TIMES! IT'S VERY SCARY TO DRIVE MY HUMMER! EVERY TIME WE HAVE ANY OF THESE PROBLEMS WE ARE ALWAYS IN MOTION AND IT'S ALWAYS ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN WE ARE DRIVING AT HIGHER SPEEDS. IT NEVER SEEMS TO HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING AROUND TOWN!! THIS HAS BEEN CONTINUING GOING ON EVER SINCE WE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN AUGUST 2014

I HAVE OWNED MY 2006 HUMMER H3 FOR THE PAST 8 YEARS AND ABOUT 5 MONTHS AGO IT BEGAN NOT WANTING TO START. NOT WANTING TO START NO MATTER WHAT I DO AND THEN STARTING LIKE NOTHING WAS EVER WRONG AFTER 10 MINUTES. I'M TIRED OF THIS HAPPENING! MY H3 JUST TURNED 50K MILES AND I LIVE IN FLORIDA WHERE THE WEATHER IS WARM... THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE. AS A RETIRED FLORIDA POLICE OFFICER I KNOW THIS TO BE TRUE... THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE! YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO GET INSIDE YOUR VEHICLE AND START IT UP AND LEAVE AT YOUR CONVENIENCE AND NOT WHEN YOUR VEHICLE DECIDES TO... THERE ARE SO MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SAME PROBLEM WITH HUMMER H3'S I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THERE HASN'T BEEN A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE... GO TO CARGURUS.COM AND READ SOME FOR YOURSELVES... HAVING TO WORRY ABOUT MY WIFE BEING STUCK SOMEWHERE ALONE BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WILL NOT START IS EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING... I PRAY NOTHING HAPPENS TO HER... THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. REALLY HOPE TO GET THIS PROBLEM FIXED... THANKS IN ADVANCE...

TRUCK WILL SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING OR NOT START. WHEN DRIVING TRUCK AND IT BEGINS TO SHUT OFF, MENU WILL SAY, "REDUCED POWER." THEN IT WILL SAY, "STABILITY SYSTEM IMMOBILIZED." THE TRUCK WILL NOT START UP. THE SECURITY ICON ON THE DASH WILL BE LIT UP. AFTER SITTING AND WAITING FOR 10 MINS OR SO, THE TRUCK WILL START AND IS ABLE TO BE DRIVEN. THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING ON MAIN STREETS, HIGHWAYS, BACK ROADS.. ETC.
