HUMMER Complaints

WHILE DRIVING MY 2005 H2 HUMMER IN A RAIN STORM THE WINDSHIELD WASHER MOTOR CAME ON AND STARTED SPRAYING WATER AND WOULD NOT STOP UNTIL THE MOTOR QUIT WORKING. THANK GOD I DID NOT WRECK. AFTER CHECKING OTHER SITES AND COMPLAINTS THIS LOOKS LIKE A DEFECT NOT ONLY IN 2003 MODELS BUT 2005 MODELS AS WELL. *TR

HEATER A/C FAN MOTOR QUIT. THE DEALER REPAIRED THE LINK AS HE SAID IT HAD GOTTEN HOT AND BURNT OUT. I CAN'T FIND INVOICE AT THIS TIME, BUT BELIEVE IT TO BE AROUND $90.00. SERVICE DONE BY WHITEHEAD CHEVROLET OF TRUTH OR CONSEQUENCES, NM. THE SERVICE MGR SAID THIS WAS A COMMON PROBLEM. *TR

EXTREMELY EXCESSIVE RUST ON UNDERBODY OF MY 2004 HUMMER H2. BRAKE LINES, CALIPERS, ROTORS, FRAME, SUSPENSION, ETC HAVE HOLES. MY BRAKES COMPLETELY FAILED ON THE HIGHWAY AND I CRASHED INTO A TRUCK AND A SUV. LUCKILY USED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO EVENTUALLY STOP IT. DEALER SAYS ENTIRE BRAKE SYSTEM NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND THE FRAME IS ALSO IN BAD SHAPE. I DID REPORT THE RUST PROBLEM TO GM WHILE UNDER THE 3 YEAR WARRANTY BUT THEY DID NOTHING. I NEITHER DO ANY CROSS-COUNTRY DRIVING NOR AM NEAR THE OCEAN. I AM SCARED OF DRIVING THE VEHICLE. *TR

SUN GLARE REFLECTS OFF THE CHROME PART PLACED ON THE ENGINE HOOD AND QUICKLY BLINDS THE DRIVER FOR SHORT PERIODS OF TIME CAUSING VERY DANGEROUS ROAD DRIVING CONDITIONS. *TR

HUMMER H3 COMPLAINT FIRST, THE 06 HUMMER H3 SUNROOF HAS LEAKED ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF APART, MOST RECENT THIS MAY-JUNE. WATER LEAKAGE INSIDE ON THE FRONT SIDE WINDOW PANELS AND FLOOR PANELS AND FLOOR. MOORE CADILLAC-HUMMER TOLD ME THAT CLOGGED DRAINS WERE THE CAUSE. I THINK THE SEAL MUST BE DEFECTIVE OTHERWISE THE RAIN WOULD NOT GET IN. THE FIRST INCIDENT WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY; THIS PAST INCIDENCE THE WARRANTY HAD JUST EXPIRED SO I WAS CHARGED $100 DOLLARS. I HAVE A FEELING THAT IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN AGAIN. I'VE NEVER HAD THIS HAPPEN ON OTHER CARS, THE SEALS NEVER LEAKED UNLESS I LEFT THE ROOF OPEN. SECOND, THE A/C FAN BLOWER RECENTLY WENT OUT, THIS JULY-AUGUST, MY LOCAL MECHANIC SAID THAT THE R & R BLOWER MOTOR RESISTOR AND RESISTOR WIRE HARNESS BURNED OUT. I'VE READ THIS ON SEVERAL BLOGS, THAT THIS WILL HAPPEN REPEATEDLY DUE TO THE DESIGN AND RESISTOR CAPACITY. HIS SERVICE FEE TO REPAIR IS $300 DOLLARS; ABOUT $170 FOR LABOR AND $ 130 FOR PARTS, WHICH I THINK IS TOO HIGH. I HAVEN'T TAKEN IT TO THE LOCAL GM DEALER (MOORE CADILLAC-HUMMER), THOUGH I PURCHASED IT FROM CRISWELL IN GAITHERSBURG, MD, SINCE I PROBABLY COULD NOT AFFORD THEIR COST. *TR

2007 HUMMER H3 HAS VIBRATION IN THE BRAKE AND ACCELERATOR PEDAL. THE CONSUMER ALSO STATED THE VEHICLE OVERHEATED WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC. *JB THE CONSUMER STATED SHE CONTINUES TO FEEL A KICK IN THE PEDAL. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEMS ON THE VEHICLE. UPDATED 01/18/11. *JB

GOODYEAR WRANGLER TIRES, ALL (INCLUDING) SPARE WITH APPROXIMATELY 54000 MILES ARE ALL CRACKING ON THE CENTER OF THE OUTSIDE WALL. TRYING TO SEE IF THERE IS A SAFETY NOTICE OR RECALL REGARDING THESE TIRES. ONE TIRE HAS A BUBBLE ON THE SIDE THAT IS ABOUT THE SIZE OF A BASEBALL FROM THE RIM TO THE TREAD. THE TIRES ARE THE ONES ON A NEW PURCHASE OF AN H3 HUMMER (2007). PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF THERE ARE ANY ISSUES REPORTED SAFETY OR RECALL SIMILAR TO THIS. *TR

SPEEDOMETER NOT WORKING AT ALL. "0" ALWAYS. SOMETIMES WHEN I DRIVE 40-50 ML/H THEN IT WORKS BUT IS NOT CORRECT AND THEN GOES TO ZERO AGAIN. I HAVE TO GET IT FIX TO KNOW HOW FAST IM GOING. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 HUMMER H2. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHENEVER IT WOULD RAIN, WATER WOULD LEAK INTO THE VEHICLE THROUGH THE SUN ROOF SEAL, INTERCOM AND FROM THE REAR ROOF. THE CONTACT STATED THE VEHICLE WOULD BECOME FLOODED. NEITHER THE DEALER NOR THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED TO REPORT THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NEITHER DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,000 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 79,084. UPDATED 09/24/10. *LJ UPDATED 09/24/10

MY BRAKES WENT OUT AND I ALMOST HAD 3 WRECKS. I WENT TO HAVE THE BRAKES CHECKED AND THEY FOUND NO PROBLEMS. BUT I AM NOW WORRIED THAT THEY WILL GO OUT AGAIN FOR NO REASON AND I MIGHT NOT BE AS LUCKY NEXT TIME. *TR
