HUMMER Complaints

I REC'D A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE 8/15 FOR 2009 H3 RECALL# 15042 OR 15V421 (2 DIFFERENT # IN LETTER) FROM HUMMER . THE CONNECTOR MODULE THAT CONTROLS BLOWER MOTOR SPEED MAY OVERHEAT." IF THIS CONDITION OCCURS, THERE IS THE RISK THAT THE HEAT GENERATED COULD MELT THE PLASTIC SURROUNDING THE CONNECTOR MODULE, WHICH INCREASES THE RISK OF A FIRE" I CALLED DEALER-AND TOLD GM HAS NO "FIX" FOR THIS ISSUES (I CALL EVERY FEW WEEKS) I CALLED GM DIRECT THAT SAID THEY DON'T HAVE THE PARTS YET TO FIX IT. I WAS ADVISED TO DRIVE AROUND WITH A FIRE EXTINGUISHER IN VEHICLE AND NOT USE THE FAN AND LEAVE THE CAR IF I SMELL SMOKE . NOTHING HAS HAPPENED YET AND I AM NOT USING FAN BUT I WOULD LIKE THIS CONDITION FIXED BEFORE A FIRE OCCURS. IT IS VERY UNSETTLING TO DRIVE THIS WAY. HUMMER/GM
