HUMMER Complaints

AIR BAG LIGHT ON. UNABLE TO REMEDY ON OWN. DEALER FOUND CODES B0092 AND 23 IN DIAGNOSTIC. STATED NEEDED NEW PPS MODULE AND "NEEDS PASSENGER SEATBELT BUCKEL SENSOR AND RE-PROGRAMMING". ADVISED THAT PASSENGER AIR BAG MAY NOT EMPLOY DUE TO NEEDED REPLACEMENT. COST $140 FOR DIAGNOSIS; AND $1200 FOR SENSOR REPLACEMENT. BEING UNABLE TO AFFORD THIS COSTLY REPAIR, AND BELIEVING THIS TO BE A DEFECT IN THE HUMMER ITSELF, WE CONTACTED GM CUSTOMER SERVICE TO REPORT SAFETY ISSUE. THEY REFUSED TO REPLACE PART OR TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR FAULTY SENSOR. THERE HAD BEEN NO ACCIDENT OR REASON FOR DEPLOYMENT OF AIR BAG. SENSOR, FOR UNEXPLAINED REASONS, JUST STOP WORKING. AT THIS TIME, WE STILL HAVE NOT FIXED THIS. IN THE LAST SIX MONTHS, WE HAVE TALKED TO THREE SEPERATE OWNERS OF THE 2007 HUMMER H3, WHO ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM, AND HAVE HIT THE SAME WALL WITH GM. WE, AND THE OTHER OWNERS, CONSIDER THIS TO BE A EXTREME SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED, AND LEADING TO RECALL FOR FAULTY SENSORS.

THE INSIDE CHROME WHEELS OF MY WIFE'S 2006 HUMMER H3 ARE FLAKING OFF AND PEELING. PIECES OF THE DEBRIS COME LOOSE AT ALL TIMES (ESPECIALLY WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION). MY BIGGEST CONCERN IS THAT IT WILL INTERFERE WITH THE BRAKE PADS WHEN THEY ARE NEEDED TO SLOW/STOP THE VEHICLE. SINCE MY WIFE AND CHILDREN ARE IN THIS CAR MORE FREQUENTLY, I DO NOT WANT THIS TO BECOME AN INCIDENT THAT COULD LEAD TO AN AVOIDABLE ACCIDENT. I HAVE PICTURES THAT DETAIL MY CONCERN WITH THE INSIDE OF THE CHROME WHEELS THAT I COULD SEND TO YOU (SHOULD YOU NEED THEM).

UPPER RAIL RUBBED AGAINST THE PLASTIC TANK ON THE RADIATOR, CREATING A CREASE THAT FRACTURED, SPRAYING RADIATOR FLUID ALL OVER THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. RADIATOR HAD TO BE REPLACED. TECH ADVISED THAT THE DESIGN OF THE VEHICLE WAS FAULTY BECAUSE THE RAIL WAS INSTALLED TOO CLOSE TO THE RADIATOR. HE SHIMMED IT TO PREVENT IT FROM HAPPENING IT AGAIN.

I WAS LEAVING OUT OF MY SUBDIVISION AND MY SIDE CURTAIN SIDE CURTAIN AIR BAGS DEPLOYED (BOTH SIDES) WITHOUT ANY WARNING. LUCKILY, I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE BACK TO HOUSE. GM IS NOT GIVING ME THE NECESSARY INFORMATION TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE.

THERE IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE LEAKING I NOTICED IT WHEN IT WAS RAINING THAT RAIN WOULD LEAK THROUGH THE ON STAR MICROPHONE AS WELL AS THROUGH THE FRONT THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER DOORS AND MAKE THE CARPET LIKE A SPONGE: HTTPS://YOUTU.BE/ENNNFWKHQWO THE VIDEO ATTACHED TO THIS LINK SHOWS A PRIME EXAMPLE. IF YOU READ THE COMMENTS IT WOULD SHOW MANY CUSTOMERS OF BEEN AFFECTED WITH THE SAME EXACT MODEL VEHICLE. ALSO THIS VIDEO SHOWS ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF WATER LEAKING THROUGH THE ON STAR MICROPHONE. HTTPS://YOUTU.BE/AQHYFOOSMXG IT IS TOO EXPENSIVE TO HAVE TO PAY $130.00 FOR THEM TO DIAGNOSE A MANUFACTURING FLAW THAT MULTIPLE OWNERS ARE GOING THROUGH. PLEASE SET A RECALL FOR THIS VEHICLE FOR THEM TO RESOLVE. AGAIN IT IS A 2006 HUMMER H3. THANKS IN ADVANCE.

THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. ...UPDATED 08/10/15*BF

WHILE DRIVING I NOTICED HEAVY SMELL OF ANTIFREEZE.. I TOOK TO LOCAL SHOP AND WE NOTICED ANTIFREEZE ALL OVER ENGINE. RADIATOR HAD CRACK ON TOP. AFTER RESEARCH I SEE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ONLINE WITH OTHER HUMMER OWNERS SAME ISSUE. HAD TO REPLACE RADIATOR. MECHANIC SAID THER RADIATOR RUBS AND BOUNCES AGAINST THE FRAME CAUSING CRACK.
