2006 Hummer H3

SINCE VEHICLE WAS DELIVERED NEW, WHEN THE KEY IS IN THE OFF POSITION IN THE IGNITION SWITCH, THE KEY WILL 'TURN ITSELF ON' WITH ONLY THE SLIGHTEST 'BUMP' OF THE KEY OR THE STEERING WHEEL. THIS IS A WELL KNOWN ISSUE WITH ALL SAME VEHICLE OWNERS. WHAT WITH ALL THE ISSUES WITH OTHER VEHICLE IGNITION MATTERS THIS ISSUE SHOULD HAVE BEEN NOTED AND CORRECTED YEARS BEFORE NOW. I STILL OWN THIS VEHICLE. *TR

ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS THE ENGINE HAS LOSS POWER IN TRAFFIC AND SLOWS DOWN TO 15 MILES AN HOUR. ONCE ON THE HIGHWAY CAUSING OTHER CARS TO SWERVE TO AVOID REAR ENDING US. ANOTHER IN RURAL TRAFFIC CAUSING OTHER CARS TO GO AROUND. WE ARE ALWAYS LEARY WHEN DRIVING THIS VEHICLE. OUR MECHANIC HAS LOOKED IT OVER ON BOTH OCCASIONS AND CAN NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG AND WE HAVE THE BEST MECHANIC IN TOWN. GM SHOULD PAY A LITTLE NOW AND RECALL THIS VEHICLE AND FIX WHAT'S WRONG INSTEAD OF A LOT LATER WHEN SOMEONE'S FAMILY IS KILLED. I BOUGHT THIS CAR FOR MY WIFE TO TRANSPORT OUR GRANDCHILDREN TO SCHOOL AND AFTER SCHOOL EVENTS EVERY TIME SHE GETS IN THAT THING I WORRY BUT BECAUSE I BOUGHT IT FOR HER SHE IS RELUCTANT TO SELL. GM PLEASE FIX. *TR

ROUGH IDLE, ENGINE LIGHT APPEARS. IN PAST HAVE BEEN TOLD HAVE BEEN TOLD GAS CAP RELATED OR POSS THERMOSTAT OR INTERMIT MISFIRE. TODAY DEALERSHIP SAYS CYLINDER #2 NOT WORKING. NEED TO REPLACE. AT A COST OF $3000+. RELATED TO L52 ENGINE CONCERNS & INTAKE VALVE SEATS. INCLUDING COLORADO & CANYONS. WHY ARE SOME RECALLED, AND/OR FIXED ON MANUFACTURER'S DIME, BUT NOT OTHERS? GM KNEW OF CONCERN, (THUS CHANGED TO LLR ENGINE). MINE FITS THE YEAR AND WELL BELOW THE VIN #. WHY SHOULD 287591 H3 OWNERS HAVE TO PAY FOR GM'S MISTAKE? *TR

THE OIL HAS BEEN CHANGED BUT I WILL DRIVE IT 10 TO 15 MILES AND STOP. THE OIL LIGHT AND THE DINGER COME ON. I RESET THE BUTTON AND THEN COME TO THE NEXT STOP AND THE LIGHT COMES ON AND THE DINGER GOES OFF. THE ONLY WAY IT STOPS IS SHUTTING OFF VEHICLE AND LET IT SET OVERNIGHT. I CHECK THE OIL WHEN IT DOES THIS AND THE DIP STICK IS FINE. IS THIS AN OIL SENSOR PROBLEM AND IS THIS UNDER WARRANTY OR A RECALL? *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HUMMER H3. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE MADE AN ABNORMAL NOISE. AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC RECOMMENDED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE UPPER BALL JOINTS AND THE CONTROL ARM BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 84,641. UPDATED 3/11/2015 *JS

WAS DRIVING 40 MPH ON A 2-LANE NORTHBOUND HIGHWAY. WEATHER CONDITIONS WERE CLEAR AND SUNNY. A CAR PULLED ONTO THE HIGHWAY AND INSTEAD OF PULLING INTO THE RIGHT LANE, IT PULLED INTO MY LEFT LANE. I HAD TO PRESS THE BRAKES A HARDER THAN NORMAL. AT THAT POINT BOTH REAR LEAF SPRINGS FAILED AND BLEW APART, DAMAGING THE DRIVE SHAFT AND PULLING THE DRIVE SHAFT FROM THE TRANSFER CASE. THE REAR AXLE WAS PUSHED TO THE VERY BACK OF THE VEHICLE, MAKING IT UN-DRIVABLE. THERE WAS ALSO SOME OTHER UNDERSIDE DAMAGE, SUCH AS THE EMERGENCY PARKING BRAKE LINE, SEALS, GASKETS, ETC. I FILED AN INSURANCE CLAIM, HOWEVER THEY DETERMINED THE ISSUE WAS DUE TO A "MECHANICAL FAILURE OF THE GENERAL MOTORS VEHICLE." I HAVE FULL COVERAGE AND NONE OF THIS WAS COVERED UNDER EITHER COLLISION (I WAS ABLE TO AVOID HITTING ANYTHING) OR COMPREHENSIVE. REPAIRS FOR ALL THIS ARE $4200 WHICH ARE BEING REPAIRED BY A GM-CERTIFIED MECHANIC AT A GM DEALERSHIP. I AM NOW OUT $4200 AND HAVE NO RECOURSE WITH GM. I AM THE SOLE OWNER OF THIS VEHICLE AND HAVE OWNED IT SINCE JULY 2005. I HAVE MAINTAINED IT IN ACCORDANCE WITH GM RECOMMENDATIONS OVER THE YEARS AND IT WAS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION PRIOR TO THIS INCIDENT. ...UPDATED 08/14/14 *BF

(6-03-14) THE RIGHT REAR MAIN LEAF SPRING BROKE CAUSING THE REAR TIRE TO LOCK UP AND BE AT THE MOST REARWARD POSITION THAT IT CAN BE, ALMOST RUBBING THE BODY. THEN TODAY, (7-27-14) THE LEFT REAR SPRING DONE THE SAME THING EXCEPT THE AXLE MOVED SO FAR BACK THAT THE DRIVESHAFT CAME OUT OF THE TRANSFER CASE AND I HAD TO HAVE A ROLLBACK HAUL IT TO A REPAIR FACILLITY.
