UNKNOWN OR OTHER
GM PASSLOCK SYSTEM VERY RANDOMLY ENGAGES OR IS TRIGGER WITHOUT WARNING WHEN SIMPLY TURNING THE KEY IN THE IGNITION TO START THE CAR. HOWEVER, THE ATTEMPT TO START THE VEHICLE IS NOT SUCCESSFULY WHICH CAUSES THE INABILITY TO POWER THE VEHILCE FOR 10 MINUTES. THERE ARE NUMEROUS HUMMER H3 OWNERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. THE GM DEALERS ARE NO HELP IN RESOLVING THE PROBLEM. IN FACT I FEEL AS IF I'M MAKING IT UP. I'VE TRIED 3 GM DEALERS NOW BETWEEN LOUISIANA AND TEXAS. THE ONLY THING ARE EXPENSIVE GUESS AT THE PROBLEMS THE DEALERS STATE THEY CAN "TRY" TO RESOLVE THEIR VERY OWN MADE GM SYSTEM. I BELIEVE IT'S AN OBVIOUS AND KNOWN ISSUE, BECAUSE IT SEEMS GM MADE CHANGES TO THE GM PASSLOCK SYSTEM IN THE MORE RECENT YEARS. I JUST HOPE IF A DANGEROUS SITUATION EVER OCCURS THAT MY VEHICLE WILL START IF I NEED TO DEPEND ON IT. PLEASE CHECK THE OTHER LIST OF UNHAPPY H3 CUSTOMERS AT THE WEB ADDRESS(ES): HTTP://WWW.HUMMERFORUMS.COM/FORUM/HUMMER-H3-17/HOW-TURN-OFF-GM-PASSLOCK-ANTI-THEFT-SYSTEM-HUMMER-H3-28665/ HTTP://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/HUMMER/H3/2006/ELECTRICAL/PASSLOCK_LIGHT_ON_PREVENTING_ENGINE_TO_START.SHTML JUST BECAUSE THE VEHICLE IS NO LONGER IN CIRCULATION, IT DOESN'T MEAN WE DON'T EXPECT KNOWLEDGEABLE SERVICE OR PURCHASING A NEW VEHICLE. PLEASE HELP US. THIS IS THE MOST INCONVENIENT ISSUE AND MOST ANNOYING AND POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS. THANK YOU WHEN: AND THE VEHICLE IS JUST PARKED AT MY HOME. I WALK IN MY GARAGE, TURN THE IGNITION, AND NOTHING HAPPENS... UGH!!! SECURITY LIGHT MAY OR MAY NOT FLASH. BUT THAT'S MY CUE TO GO BACK INTO THE HOUSE AND SIT FOR 10 MINUTES BEFORE I CAN LEAVE MY HOME. AND THIS HAPPENS EVERYWHERE I GO: GROCERY STORE, PARKING IN THE COLD, TO THE MALL, TO THE MOVIES, AND THE LIST GOES ON. IT OFTEN OCCURS ONE RIGHT AFTER THE OTHER DEPENDING ON HOW MANY DIFFERENT LOCATIONS I NEED TO TRAVEL. THEREFORE I HAVE TO TACK ON EXTRA 10MINS TO EACH LOCATION.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
THE RADIATOR HAS A CRACK IN IT WHICH IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE...NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. MY H3 WAS IDLING ROUGH AND WOULD SHUT OFF. HAD TO REPLACE THROTTLE BODY AND SOLENOID. THE ANTI-THEFT ACTS UP AND THE H3 WON'T START HAVE TO WAIT 10 MINUTES. THE AC BLOWER AND CONNECTOR BURNT PAID FOR IT TO GET FIXED THEN THE RECALL COMES OUT 7 DAYS LATER....STILL HAVEN'T BEEN REFUNDED FOR THAT. I HAVE ALL THE ISSUES ON MY 2007 H3 THAT SHOULD ALL BE RECALLED AND FIXED AT GM EXPENSE. SUNROOF DRAINS GET CLOGGED ALL THE TIME AND HAVE WATER LEAK ONTO THE FLOOR WHICH MAKES THE ABS LIGHT TRIGGER ON AND OFF. ISSUE AFTER ISSUE WHICH GM DOESN'T TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR. IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S TIME TO SELL THE HUMMER H3!!

ENGINE
MORE AND MORE FREQUENTLY WHEN THE IGNITION KEY IS TURNED TO START THE ENGINE, THE SECURITY SYSTEM ACTIVATES AND DISABLES THE ENGINE AND PREVENTS IT FROM STARTING FOR 10 MINUTES. THERE IS NO POSSIBLE OVERRIDE SO REGARDLESS OF WHERE YOU ARE (ON THE FREEWAY, ON A RR CROSSING, AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, OR WHEREVER, THE ENGINE WILL SPIN BUT WILL NOT CRANK. YOU ARE PUT IN THE SITUATION OF HAVING TO PHYSICALLY PUSH THE VEHICLE OUT OF DANGER OR LET IT SIT UNTIL THE SECURITY SYSTEM RESETS TO ATTEMPT TO START IT. THIS HAS ALSO OCCURRED ON MY 2005 CHEVY COLRADO PICKUP WHICH IS EQUIPPED WITH AN IDENTICAL DRIVE TRAIN AS MY H3 HUMMER. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES, MORE THAN 25.
