2006 Hummer H3

HUMMER H3 COMPLAINT FIRST, THE 06 HUMMER H3 SUNROOF HAS LEAKED ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF APART, MOST RECENT THIS MAY-JUNE. WATER LEAKAGE INSIDE ON THE FRONT SIDE WINDOW PANELS AND FLOOR PANELS AND FLOOR. MOORE CADILLAC-HUMMER TOLD ME THAT CLOGGED DRAINS WERE THE CAUSE. I THINK THE SEAL MUST BE DEFECTIVE OTHERWISE THE RAIN WOULD NOT GET IN. THE FIRST INCIDENT WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY; THIS PAST INCIDENCE THE WARRANTY HAD JUST EXPIRED SO I WAS CHARGED $100 DOLLARS. I HAVE A FEELING THAT IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN AGAIN. I'VE NEVER HAD THIS HAPPEN ON OTHER CARS, THE SEALS NEVER LEAKED UNLESS I LEFT THE ROOF OPEN. SECOND, THE A/C FAN BLOWER RECENTLY WENT OUT, THIS JULY-AUGUST, MY LOCAL MECHANIC SAID THAT THE R & R BLOWER MOTOR RESISTOR AND RESISTOR WIRE HARNESS BURNED OUT. I'VE READ THIS ON SEVERAL BLOGS, THAT THIS WILL HAPPEN REPEATEDLY DUE TO THE DESIGN AND RESISTOR CAPACITY. HIS SERVICE FEE TO REPAIR IS $300 DOLLARS; ABOUT $170 FOR LABOR AND $ 130 FOR PARTS, WHICH I THINK IS TOO HIGH. I HAVEN'T TAKEN IT TO THE LOCAL GM DEALER (MOORE CADILLAC-HUMMER), THOUGH I PURCHASED IT FROM CRISWELL IN GAITHERSBURG, MD, SINCE I PROBABLY COULD NOT AFFORD THEIR COST. *TR

I OWN A HUMMER H3 THE OTHER DAY THE AIRCONDITION STOP WORKING I LOOK AT THE HEATER BLOWER THE LINKS TO THE AIR CONDITIONER THE WIRES AND RESISTOR WERE FRAYED AND EXTREME HOT. I HAD TO UN HOOK IT SO IT WON'T START A FIRE. I AM NOT THE ONLY PERSON WITH THIS COMPLAINT AND I READ OTHER PEOPLES STORY'S THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL, I WAS TOLD TO REPLACE IT COULD CAUSE A FIRE. *TR

I OWN A 2006 HUMMER H3. MY FAN BLOWER QUIT WORKING. UPON INVESTIGATION I FOUND THE BLOWER MOTOR RESISTOR AND THE CONNECTOR TO BE WELDED TOGETHER. I HAD TO REPLACE BOTH ITEMS BECAUSE THEY WERE MELTED TOGETHER. THIS HAS TO BE A FIRE HAZARD AND AFTER I GOOGLED IT TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO FIX IT I WAS SHOCKED AT THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. I CAN NOT BELIEVE THIS HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL ISSUE. *TR
