HUMMER Complaints

I WAS LEAVING A FRIENDS HOUSE AND HAD TO DRIVE THROUGH A SMALL DITCH AND MY SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAGS DEPLOYED FOR NO REASON. THIS IS A HUMMER H3 AN OFF ROAD VEHICLE WHICH IS SUPPOSED TO BE ABLE TO DRIVE ON A 60 DEGREE ANGLE AND THIS DITCH WAS MAYBE 2 FEET DEEP AND THE TRUCK WAS BARELY EVEN AT ANY TYPE OF ANGLE AT ALL. *TR

I RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2006 H3. FROM THE DAY I BOUGHT THE CAR I HAVE NOTICED A WEIRD IDLE WHEN THE VEHICLE IS WARMING UP. UNTIL RECENTLY I THOUGHT IT WAS THE WAY THE VEHICLE RAN NORMALLY. I DECIDED TO HAVE THE VEHICLE INSPECTED BY A MECHANIC. AFTER BEING INSPECTED THE MECHANIC NOTICED THE VEHICLE'S VALVES WERE NOT SEEDED RIGHT FROM THE FACTORY, WHICH HAS CAUSED THE MISFIRE, WHICH CAUSES THE WEIRD IDLE. I NOW AM IN THE PROCESS OF CONTACTING HUMMER TO SEE IF THERE IS A SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE HAS ONLY 61870 MILES ON IT AND I DON'T FEEL THIS SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED THIS SOON IN THE VEHICLES LIFE. SERVICE BULLETINS HAVE BEEN WARRANTED AND I WOULD LIKE TO FIND A REASONABLE SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM. *TR

WIPER COVER RECALL NOTICE 08243. TOOK VEHICLE IN, WIPERS HAD ALREADY STOPPED WORKING. TOLD CREST CADILLAC THIS WHEN I CALLED. THEY REPLACED THE COVER ON A MOTOR THAT WAS BROKEN ALREADY. WOULD NOT REPLACE THE MOTOR. NOTE ON INSPECTION REPORT SAID WIPER MOTOR ASSEMBLE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. CALLED GM SEVERAL TIMES AND WAS TO RECALL WAS FOR MOTOR COVER AND NOT MOTOR. I WOULD SAY, YES BUT BECAUSE THE COVER IS DEFECTIVE AND ALLOWED WATER IN THE MOTOR ASSEMBLY IT HAS STOPPED WORKING. WOULD NOT REPLACE OR COVER CHARGES. WENT TO SEE MANAGER OR REPAIR SHOP, HE SAID HE COULD NOT REPLACE MOTOR WITHOUT AUTHORIZATION OR HE WOULD NOT GET REIMBURSED FOR CHARGES. FILLED COMPLAIN WITH BBB. GOT CALL FROM GM WITHIN 3 DAYS, AFTER ANSWERING HER QUESTIONS SHE TOLD ME THEY COULD WOULD NOT REPLACE THE MOTOR AT THIS TIME. CALLED MANAGER OF CREST CADILLAC AND GAVE HER INFO. SHE SAID SHE WOULD CALL ME BACK. I NEVER HEARD FROM HER. DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO NOW. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 HUMMER H2. WHEN THE CONTACT ACTIVATED THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS, THEY MADE A LOUD REVVING NOISE AS IF THE MOTOR WAS DEFECTIVE. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 02V283000 (VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD WIPER/WASHER:MOTOR); HOWEVER, THERE WAS AN ADDITIONAL OPEN RECALL FOR THE WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR COVER (NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 08V456000: (VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD WIPER/WASHER:MOTOR)). THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND THEY STATED THAT THE REPAIRS HAD BEEN PREVIOUSLY PERFORMED. THE DEALER WANTED TO CHARGE FOR THE REPAIRS AND STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT YET PAID FOR THE SERVICES, WHICH IS WHY IT WAS SHOWN AS AN OPEN RECALL. NO REPAIRS HAVE BEEN MADE TO THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE LESS THAN 60,700.

NHTSA NUMBER 08V456000 ACTION #PE08042 MY VEHICLE HAS THE SAME I HAVE THE EXACT SAME WINDSHIELD WIPER/WASHER PROBLEM AS LISTED IN THE RECALL HOWEVER, HUMMER AT WWW.GMOWNERCENTER.COM WON'T REPAIR IT. BECAUSE MY 2003 H-2 HUMMER IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALLVINS. LOCAL HUMMER DEALER WILL REPAIR IT BUT NEEDS APPROVAL IF IT IS TO BE REPAIRED. WHY MY H2 VIN WASN'T INCLUDED IS A MYSTERY TO ME...BUT THE PROBLEM AS REFERENCED STILL EXISTS AS A SAFETY DEFECT. I NEED YOUR ASSISTANCE ON THIS TO MOVE FORWARD AND CORRECT THIS PROBLEM. PLEASE ADVISE. *TR

NEED TO REPLACE BLOWER MOTOR RESISTOR MODULE. IT QUIT WORKING AND WE HAVE BEEN TRYING TO REPLACE PART SINCE SEPT 2008. GM INFORMED ME THEY DO NOT CURRENTLY MAKE THIS PART. I FEEL IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE DUE TO ICE/FROST AND OR CONDENSATION FORMING ON THE INSIDE OF THE WINDOWS DUE TO THE COLD WEATHER HERE. IT MAKES VISIBILITY SLIM TO NONE. I WAS TOLD IT WOULD TAKE AT LEAST A MONTH TO FIND SOMEONE TO MAKE THIS PART...THAT WAS 2 MONTHS AGO. JUST SINCE SEPT 2008 THERE ARE ALMOST 500 PEOPLE HUNTING THIS SAME PART, WE ARE #8 ON THE LIST. I FEEL DUE TO THE HIGH VOLUME IT SHOULD BE HANDLED AS A RECALL...REPLACED FREE OF CHARGE AS WELL AS FREE LABOR, AND A RENTAL CAR PROVIDED FREE OF CHARGE UNTIL GM/HUMMER CAN FIX MY VEHICLE SO I CAN HAVE THE USE OF IT. *TR
