WHEELS:RIM
VEHICLE HAD A BENT RIM THAT CAME DIRECTLY FROM THE MANUFACTURER. CONSUMER TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER, AND WAS INFORMED THAT BECAUSE THE RIM WAS BENT IT WAS CAUSING THE TIRE TO GO FLAT. CONSUMER LEFT THE VEHICLE AT THE DEALER FOR TWO WEEKS, AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DEFECT. WHILE DRIVING WITH THIS DEFECT VEHICLE JERKED TO THE RIGHT, KNOCKING DOWN A MAILBOX. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS AT THE BODY SHOP THE TIRE HAD TO BE INFLATED EACH TIME THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE MOVED. OWNER WAS ALSO TOLD THAT THE RIM WAS BOWED BY THE MANUFACTURER WHICH COULD NOT BE REPAIRED. IT WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED. *AK

POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE:DIFFERENTIAL UNIT
2005 H2, PURCHASED 10/2004 THERE IS A NOISE THAT CANNOT BE LOCATED AND REPAIRED. SEWELL CADILLAC, DALLAS, TEXAS REPLACED THE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL (IT HAD METAL SHAVINGS IN IT), REPLACED REAR SPRINGS OBSERVING THEY WERE OVER EXTENDED, BUBBLED AND WARPED. THE CAR IN TWO SEPARATE REPAIR TICKETS HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP 7 DAYS EACH TIME FOR A TOTAL OF 14 DAYS. IS DOESN'T APPEAR THIS PROBLEM CAN BE FOUND OR FIXED. THERE IS A "DRAGGING" NOISE UPON ACCELERATION BETWEEN 20 - 40 MPH. IT IS VERY UNCOMFORTABLE HEARING THIS NOISE. MY NEIGHBOR HAD HER WHEEL COME OFF OF HER 2003 H2. I WAS REQUIRED TO FILL A BLANK SO I CHOSE POWER TRAIN ONLY BECAUSE IT SEEMS CLOSEST TO WHAT IT MIGHT BE, I'M NOT SURE. SEWELL KEEPS TRYING TO FIX THE PROBLEM, JUST UNSUCCESSFULLY.*AK

STEERING:LINKAGES:TIE ROD ASSEMBLY
I BOUGHT A HUMMER H2 IN APRIL 2004. I WENT OFF ROAD THE NEXT WEEKEND AND WAS GOING ABOUT 5 MILES AN HOUR UP A MOUNTAIN AND LOST CONTROL OF THE STEERING. WE FOUND OUT THE TIE ROD BROKE. THEY TOLD ME IT WAS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY. I WENT TO ABRITRATION AND WON MY CASE. THIS LAST WEEKEND I WAS CLIMBING A HILL LESS THAN 5 MILES AN HOUR AND THE SAME TIE ROD BROKE. WHEN THIS HAPPENS YOU HAVE NO CONTROL OF THAT WHEEL. I TALKED TO A SALES MAN AT THE HUMMER DEALER I BOUGHT MY TRUCK FROM AND HE TOLD ME THAT HE BROKE A TIE ROD AT ONE OF THE HUMMER TEST CENTERS. WHEN I PICKED MY TRUCK UP FROM THE DEALER THE FIRST TIME MY TIE ROD BROKE I SAW ANOTHER HUMMER H2 BEING BROUGHT IN FOR A BROKEN TIE ROD. I TALKED TO THE SERVICE REPAIR TECH AND HE TOLD ME HE COULD NOT BELIEVE HOW SMALL THE TIE RODS ARE. I FEEL VERY LUCKY TO BE ABLE TO TELL YOU THESE STORIES. I DO NOT WANT TO HAVE TO SEE PEOPLE DIE FROM THIS DEFECTIVE TIE ROD. I KNOW GM DOES NOT WANT TO RECALL THIS PART BUT IT NEEDS TO BE CHANGED BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR KILLED. THANKS FOR YOU HELP, ANTHONY OREFICE 661 510-6523 CELL. *AK

SUSPENSION:FRONT:CONTROL ARM:UPPER BALL JOINT
FRONT WHEEL LINKAGE FAILURE, WHEEL FELL OFF. MY BROTHER AND I NEARLY DIED TODAY FROM AN ACCIDENT IN MY MOTHERS H2. WE HAD JUST LEFT A FRIENDS HOUSE AND WERE TRAVELING AT ABOUT 35 MPH WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN IT SEEMED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE WHEEL BROKE FREE. THE H2 VIOLENTLY SWERVED TO THE LEFT AND EVEN THOUGH I AM A BIG GUY IT WAS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO KEEP THAT 6000 LBS BEAST FROM SWERVING. I HIT THE BRAKES BUT THOSE DIDN'T SEEM TO HELP SINCE THE BRAKES WERE STILL ATTACHED TO THE WHEEL WHICH I COULD SEE WAS BEHIND US FROM THE SIDE VIEW MIRROR. THE H2 TORE THROUGH THE OPPOSITE LANE AND SLAMMED US INTO A DITCH CAUSING EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE DRIVERS SIDE. I CAN ONLY THANK GOD THAT WE WERE FINE AND THAT THERE WAS NO ONCOMING TRAFFIC AT THAT TIME. THE BRAKING OFF OF THE WHEEL CAUSED MAJOR WHEEL WELL AND FENDER DAMAGE. THE FORCE OF THE WHEEL SLAMMING INTO THE WELL SHATTERED THE WINDSHIELD AND BROKE THE SIDE STEP. I HAD DIFFICULTY OPENING THE DOOR TO GET OUT BECAUSE OF THE DAMAGE. WHEN I GOT OUT I SAW THAT THE WHEEL WAS ABOUT 10 FEET BEHIND US. THERE WERE SEVERAL SUSPENSION PIECES STILL CONNECTED TO IT. THE POLICE OFFICER HAD A HARD TIME BELIEVING MY STORY, BUT THAT IS EXPECTED FROM THEM, THE REAL PAINFUL THING IS THAT MY MOTHER WONT BELIEVE ME EITHER. I HAVE READ OF SEVERAL CASES LIKE THIS. THIS WAS A VERY SCARY ACCIDENT, NOTHING IS WORSE THAN LOOSING ALL CONTROL OF A VEHICLE WITH A LOVED ONE INSIDE, KNOWING THAT YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT PERSON. *AK

SUSPENSION:FRONT, POWER TRAIN:AXLE ASSEMBLY
LIFTED VEHICLE WAS TAKEN INTO HAVE A LEAKING UPPER DRIVER'S SIDE CV BOOT REPLACED. WHEN THE AXLE WAS REMOVED, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE AXLE HAD BEEN DESTOYED AND THE PIECES PUNCTURED THE CV BOOT INTERNALLY CAUSING THE LEAK. THIS IS THE 2ND TIME IN A LITTLE OVER 600 MILES THAT THIS BOOT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. WHEN THE CV BOOT WAS LAST REPLACED, THERE WAS NO NOTICABLE DAMAGE TO THE AXLE. WAS INFORMED BY A GM TECH TODAY THAT THE DAMAGE MAY HAVE OCCURED WHEN THE AXLE WAS REINSTALLED. NOW I HAVE BEEN INFORMED BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT THE GM FACTORY REP HAS DENIED WARRANTY COVERAGE. VEHICLE HAS BEEN LIFTED AND DEALERSHIP ATTRIBUTES THE DAMAGE TO THE LIFT AND THE ANGLE OF THE AXLES. VEHICLE IS NOT USED OFF-ROAD AND 4X4 OPTION IS NOT USED. OTHER H2'S ON WWW.H2SOURCE.COM HAVE HAD SIMILAR PROBLEMS BUT THIS WAS DUE TO OFF-ROAD USAGE. *MR

ANY TIME IT RAINS THE VEHICLE FILLS UP WITH WATER. THE DEALER HAS REPLACED THE SUN ROOF, THE GASKET IN THE DRIVERS DOOR, AND THE CARGO HATCH. THE ELECTRIC DRIVERS SEAT MOVES UP AUTOMATICALLY WHEN THE VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF CAUSING THE DRIVER TO BE CRUSHED AGAINST THE DASH BOARD. THE CONSUMER FEELS THAT THE HOOD IS TOO HEAVY AND THAT THERE IS NO SUPPORT BAR TO HOLD IT UP. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER SEVEN TIMES SINCE THE CONSUMER PURCHASED IT. *MR

VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD WIPER/WASHER
I OWN A 2003 HUMMER H2. THIS IS THE SECOND WINTER WITH THIS CAR AND THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED EVERYTIME I DRIVE IN SNOW. I CLEANED THE ENTIRE WINDSHIELD INCLUDING SNOW AND ICE UNDER THE WIPERS, I WARM UP THE CAR PROPERLY, I TURN THE DEFROST ON (LAST NIGHT IT WAS SET AT 80 DEGREES)/ WITHIN A FEW MILES THE WIPERS ARE INEFFECTIVE BECAUSE A LAYER OF ICE AND SNOW HAS ACCUMULATED BETWEEN THE WINDSHIELD AND THE WIPER BLADES. VISIBILITY---ZERO. *LA
