ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THE VEHICLE SOMETIMES WILL NOT START DUE TO A PROBLEM WITH THE SECURITY SENSOR IN THE IGNITION SWITCH. THIS IS WHEN STARTING UP THE VEHICLE AND WILL ONLY PERIODICALLY OCCUR. THE SECURITY SYSTEM LIGHT COMES ON AND YOU HAVE TO WAIT 10 MINUTES TO START THE VEHICLE, THEN IT WILL START. IT HAS HAPPENED IN THE SUMMER AND NOW THE WINTER.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
MY 2006 H3 (50K MILES) HAS STARTING ISSUES THAT HAVE BEEN GETTING MORE FREQUENT SINCE LAST YEAR. WHEN I TRY TO START IT, IT WILL CRANK FINE BUT WILL NOT START. IF I WAIT APPROXIMATELY 10 MINUTES & TRY AGAIN, IT STARTS WITH NO PROBLEMS. DURING THIS ISSUE, EVERYTHING ELSE WORKS IN THE VEHICLE (RADIO, LIGHTS, ETC..). I'VE HAD IT CHECKED BY SEVERAL MECHANICS & REPLACED LOTS OF PARTS BUT DIDN'T HELP THIS ISSUE AT ALL. I HAVE READ MANY COMPLAINTS REFERENCE THIS SAME EXACT ISSUE ONLINE & THROUGH NHTSA BUT NOBODY HAS HAD ANY POSITIVE RESPONSES. THIS IS A MAJOR ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE TAKEN CARE OF BY GM AS A RECALL. I WILL BE PART OF THIS CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT THROUGH THESE THREADS RELATED TO THIS HUMMER H3 ISSUE. THANK YOU & WAITING TO HEAR ABOUT THIS TERRIBLE GM ISSUE. RICH

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
SIR/MA'AM, I AM WRITING TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THE 2007 HUMMER H3 SECURITY SYSTEM NOT ALLOWING THE VEHICLE TO START UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS. I MAINTAIN MY VEHICLE TO HIGH STANDARDS AND OVER THE LAST 8 MONTHS HAVE HAD ISSUES STARTING MY HUMMER. WHEN THE HUMMER DOES NOT START, YOU MUST WAIT 10-15 MINUTES TO EVEN ATTEMPT TO RESTART. THE VEHICLE WILL TURN OVER, BUT NO FUEL IS SENT TO THE ENGINE TO START. IF IT DOESN'T START AGAIN, YOU MUST WAIT ANOTHER 10-15 MINUTES. THE LATTER HAS HAPPENED TO ME 5 OR 6 TIMES IN JUST THE LAST 2 MONTHS. THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS TO GM ABOUT THIS EXACT ISSUE, AND HAS FALLEN ON DEAF EARS. MANY VEHICLE FORUM USERS COMPLAIN OF THE EXACT ISSUE AS WELL, WITH ZERO ASSISTANCE FROM GM AS SEEN HERE: HTTPS://WWW.CARGURUS.COM/CARS/DISCUSSION-C8039_DS531571 I AM CONCERNED THAT IF THE SPORADIC SECURITY LOCKDOWN (PASSLOCK) OCCURS WHILE DRIVING, FUEL IS CUT OFF FROM THE RUNNING ENGINE, SPEED/STEERING/BRAKING WILL BE MINIMIZED, AND THE POSSIBILITY OF A CRASH IS INCREASED EXPONENTIALLY. PLEASE ADVISE GM THERE NEEDS TO BE A FIX FOR THIS AND ENSURE THEY COMPLY! THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. I BELIEVE MY PHOTOS OF THE BLOWER MOTOR FAN RESISTOR BEING BURNT HELPED GET GM ISSUE A RECALL, AND I HOPE THIS WILL URGE THEM TO FIX AS WELL
