HUMMER Complaints

OVERHEATED AND MELTED RESISTOR AND WIRING HARNESS FOR THE HVAC BLOWER MOTOR ON A 2006 HUMMER H3. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO MY VEHICLE AND A FRIEND OF MINE. ALSO MANY OWNERS ON THE INTERNET HAVE HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM. IT IS SO PREVALENT THAT MANY PARTS SUPPLIERS ARE ADVERTISING THE PARTS FOR SALE. *TR

EVERY TIME IT RAINS THE SUNROOF FILLS WITH WATER AND POURS FROM THE ONSTAR SPEAKER, THE TOP OF THE CAR, AND THE SIDES ONTO MY FEET. *TR

LOSS OF POWER, WAS ABLE TO DRIVE TO THE LOCAL GM DEALER.MECHANIC STATED IT WAS DUE TO A VALVE SEAT COMING LOOSE IN THE HEAD.MECHANIC ALSO STATED THIS PROBLEM WAS A RECURRING PROBLEM IN THIS 5CYL ENGINE.THE SAME ENGINE THAT IS IN THE COLORADO PICKUPS AND IS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY IN THE PICKUPS BUT NOT THE HUMMER.

PURCHASED 2006 H3 WITH 58K ON IT. AT 61K THE A/C BLOWER WOULD INCREASE IN SPEED FOR NO REASON THEN GO BACK TO ITS SETTING. AT 62K IT STOPPED BLOWING FOR NO REASON. ONLINE SEARCH OF H3 A/C BLOWER ISSUES GAVE ME A PLACE TO START LOOKING. FUSE WAS OK, CHECKED RESISTOR PACK (PN 11221007.011) UNDER DASH AND FOUND PIN "A" MELTED WITH SIGN OF RECENT ELECTRICAL FIRE DUE TO SHORTING OUT. THE ORANGE CONNECTOR ON THE HARNESS WAS ALSO MELTED. FURTHER ONLINE RESEARCH OF THIS ISSUE REVEALED THAT IT IS A "COMMON OCCURRENCE". I CALLED DEALER AND WAS TOLD "THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF IT". I PURCHASED RESISTOR PACK, CONNECTOR, AND PINS THEN CHANGED THE COMPONENT MYSELF. WORKS GOOD SO FAR.... *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HUMMER H3. THE CONTACT STATED THE ENGINE COOLANT WAS LEAKING FRONT THE FRONT OF THE ENGINE.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HUMMER H3. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE SIDE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED WITHOUT PROVOCATION. THE DRIVER SUFFERED BRUISING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE THEY INFORMED IT WOULD TAKE BETWEEN TWENTY AND THIRTY DAYS TO EXAMINE THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE WAS BELIEVED TO BE DUE TO FAULTY SIDE AIR BAG SENSORS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND STATED THEY WOULD SEND A REPRESENTATIVE TO THE DEALER WITHIN THE NEXT TWENTY TO THIRTY DAYS TO INSPECT THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED FOR ROUTINE MAINTENANCE TWO WEEKS PRIOR TO THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THEY WERE UNSURE WHETHER THE FAILURE WOULD BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 98,000.

I HAVE A 2004 HUMMER H2, THE ENTIRE INSTRUMENT PANEL MALFUNCTIONS. THE FUEL GAUGE, SPEEDOMETER, OIL GAUGES AND ALL. YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH GAS YOU HAVE AND/ OR HOW FAST TRAVELING ETC.. THE VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 70,000 MILES ON IT. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 HUMMER H3, EVERY FEW WEEKS OR SO THE MOTOR WILL TURN OVER BUT WILL NOT START. I LET IT SIT FOR A WHILE AND THEN IT WILL START. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO BOTH THE DEALER AND ANOTHER MECHANIC BUT NEITHER CAN FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO, I GOT A NEW BATTERY THINKING THAT WOULD SOLVE THE ISSUE BUT IT HAS NOT. *TR

WHEN BRAKING AT STOP SIGN, HEARD GROAN NOISE FROM THE BACK BRAKES. TOOK TO DEALER 3 TIMES FOR SAME CONCERN, FIRST TIME ANSWER WAS "IT'S NORMAL, SECOND TIME, REFACE REAR DISCS, NO MORE NOISE. AFTER 3 MONTH , SAME PROBLEM, ANSWER WAS "NEED TO DRIVE MORE YOUR TRUCK.".RETURN AFTER FEW WEEKS , NOISE NOW IT'S WORSE, THEY AGAIN REFACE REAR DISCS, MY TRUCK HAVE 11000 MILES, NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THAT. NO ACCIDENTS SO FAR, BUT AT EVERY STOP OR LIGHT MY TRUCK "TURNS HEADS" OF OTHERS DRIVERS BUT NOT FOR THE LOOK, IT"S THE NOISE. *TR
