ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
WITHIN THE FIRST 44 HOURS OF OWNING THIS VEHICLE IT BROKE DOWN WHEN MY WIFE AND I WERE 50 MILES FROM HOME - AFTER WAITING OVER 45 MINUTES FOR ROAD SERVICE I FINALLY GOT IT STARTED. IT REPEATED THIS PROBLEM THREE TIMES AND HAD TO BE TOWED IN ON FLAT BED - ON MAY 26TH IT WOULD NOT START AGAIN AND HAD TO BE TOWED AGAIN, THEY CANNOT GET PROBLEM TO REPEAT ITSELF - THEN AGAIN TWO WEEKS LATER IT WAS DEAD AGAIN. THEY CANNOT GET THE PROBLEM TO REPEAT ITSELF AND CLAIM THEY ARE BAFFLED.THEY HAVE BROUGHT HUMMER TO MY DRIVEWAY TO SEE IF THERE IS A "SIGNAL" IN MY AREA THAT IS CAUSING THE "MODULE" THAT IS KICKING ON AND DRAING POWER

SUSPENSION:FRONT, VISIBILITY:REAR WINDOW WIPER/WASHER, VISIBILITY
I HAVE PURCHASED A 2003 HUMMER H-2 LAST YEAR IN ARIZONA. I NOW LIVE IN FLORIDA. MY TRUCKS STEERING VIBRATES AND MAKES A CLICKING TYPE NOISE WHEN DRIVING ON POOR PAVEMENT. THEN THE WINDSHIELD WIPER STOPPED WORKING. I TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND ON. THE WINDSHIELD WIPER STARTED WORKING, BUT THE WINDSHIELD WIPER WASHER KEEPS SPRAYING CLEANER ON THE WINDSHIELD. I HAD TO REMOVE THE RELAY TO MAKE IT STOP. THE REAR WINDOW WASHER KEEPS SPRAYING CLEANER ON THE WINDOW ALSO. I CALLED A CHEVORLET DEALER IN FLORIDA AND TOLD THEM ABOUT THE PROBLEM. THEY TOLD ME THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY $600 FOR THE MULTISELECT SWITCH IF THAT IS THE PROBLEM. THAT DOESN'T INCLUDE THE LABOR COST. I STARTED LOOKING ON THE INTERNET FOR RECALL INFORMATION AND IT SEEMS THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THAT PROBLEM. I DON'T THINK THAT I SHOULD PAY FOR A MANUFACTURE MISTAKE. SO I AM REPORTING THIS TO YOU. NOTHING WAS DONE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. *TR

I HAVE A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH LEAKING AND RATTLING COMING FROM THE SUNROOF AND NOW I CANNOT GET IT TO FUNCTION. IT SOUNDS LIKE IT MIGHT ACTUALLY FLY OFF WHEN I AM RIDING DOWN THE ROAD. I HAVE HEARD VERY MANY COMPLAINTS ON THIS SAME PROBLEM FROM OTHER H2 OWNERS. I AM NOT WORRIED ABOUT IT WORKING PROPERLY BUT I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT IT FLYING OFF AND CAUSING SERIOUS INJURIES TO MY SELF OR OTHER PEOPLE IT MAY HIT. *TR

WHILE TURNING DOWN A CITY STREET THE LEFT FRONT WHEEL OF MY 2003 HUMMER 2 BROKE OFF FROM THE AXLE, AND THE VEHICLE DROPPED ONTO ITS BELLY ON THE LEFT FRONT SIDE. IT WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND REPORTED TO THEM. THEIR RESPONSE HAS BEEN "WHATEVER, TOO BAD" BUT THERE ARE ONLY 68,000 MILES ON IT AND THIS FAILURE HAS BEEN REPORTED IN THESE VEHICLES BEFORE. WHAT CONSTITUTES A SAFETY RECALL AND WHO GATHERS AND REPORTS THE DATA ? THANK YOU *TR

VISIBILITY:REAR WINDOW WIPER/WASHER, VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD WIPER/WASHER:SWITCH/WIRING
I OWN A 2005 HUMMER H2. THE PROBLEM IS THAT BOTH FRONT AND BACK WINDSHIELD WIPERS COME ON BY THEMSELVES WITHOUT TURNING THE CONTROLS ON. IT HAS DRAINED THE WINDSHIELD WIPER FLUID RESEVOIR DOWN TO NOTHING. THEY COME ON IF IT IS RAINING OR NOT RAINING. AS YOU CAN SEE THIS PRESENTS A HAZARD IF YOU CAN NOT SEE THE ROAD WHEN THE FLUID IS GOING ON THE WINDSHIELD AND THE WIPERS COMING ON WHEN THEY WANT TO. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC, STEERING
I WAS DRIVING MY 2004 H2 HUMMER. I WAS ON A DEEP SLOPE HILL. I WAS BACKING UP AND I HIT A 500 SERIES MERCEDEZ ON HIS LEFT BUMPER FROM LEFT REAR BUMPER. IMMEDIATELY AFTER I HIT, I STARTED TO SHIFT THE GEAR SO THAT I COULD STOP THE CAR TO GET OUT TO SEE WHAT HAPPENED. AT THIS POINT, THE HUMMER STARTED TO TRAVEL AT VERY FAST SPEED DOWN THE STREET IN THE SAME PATTERN THAT I HAD ORIGINALLY DRIVEN UP. I TRIED TO APPLY THE BRAKES, BRAKES DID NOT WORK. I TRIED TO STEER, STEERING WAS IN A LOCK POSITION. I HIT A PEDESTRIAN HARD AND MY CAR LANDED IN MY NEIGHBOR'S HOUSE. WHEN I HIT THE HOUSE, THE 2 FRONT WHEELS BECAME DETACHED FROM THE CAR. THE PEDESTRIAN THAT I HIT HAS INCURRED MANY SERIOUS DAMAGES. I HAD 1 ENGINEERING COMPANY LOOK AT THE CAR BACK IN 2004 AFTER THE ACCIDENT AND THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. WHEN I LOOK NOW, I'VE HEARD OF MANY CASES WHERE SIMILAR INCIDENTS HAVE OCCURRED DUE TO BRAKES. I AM CURRENTLY IN COURT FOR ANOTHER 1 WEEK AS THIS PEDESTRIAN IS NOW SUING ME. I PLEAD TO ALL H2 HUMMER OWNERS TO CONTRIBUTE ANY INFORMATION THAT THEY MAY HAVE ABOUT OTHER HUMMER OWNERS OR THEIR OWN EXPERIENCE. YOUR CONTRIBUTION TO THIS MATTER IS HIGHLY APPRECIATED. *TR
