2009 Hummer H3

I STARTED THE IGNITION, TURNED UP THE BLOWER FAN SPEED, AND THE CABIN FILLED WITH SMOKE WHICH SMELLED OF BURNING PLASTIC AND ELECTRICAL WIRES. BLOWER FAN DID NOT FUNCTION, AND UPON FOLLOWING THE SMELL AND SMOKE, I TRACED THE PROBLEM TO A RED ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR DIRECTLY UNDER THE GLOVE BOX. THE CONNECTOR CONNECTS TO THE BLOWER MOTOR RESISTOR AND HAD MELTED INTO THE RESISTOR UNIT FUSING BOTH PARTS TOGETHER IN ONE LARGE PIECE OF BURNT PLASTIC. THE ORANGE WIRE, (THE LARGEST GAUGE WIRE ON THE CONNECTOR), HAD MELTED BACK AWAY FROM THE CONNECTOR AS WELL EXPOSING BARE WIRE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 HUMMER H3. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AS SOON AS THE ENGINE WAS STARTED, THE WHOLE DASH EMITTED SMOKE. THE RESISTOR WIRE UNDER THE GLOVE BOX CAUGHT ON FIRE AND IT SPREAD RAPIDLY. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. THE FIRE ALSO SPREAD TO ADDITIONAL VEHICLES THAT WERE PARKED NEAR THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. A FIRE REPORT WAS AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 120,000. THE CONSUMER STATED A DAY BEFORE THE INCIDENT, THE HEATER BLOWER MOTOR WOULD COME ON AND THEN SHUT OFF ON ITS OWN. SOMETIME IT WOULD WORK, AND OTHER TIMES, IT WOULDN'T.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 HUMMER H3. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS THERE WAS A CLICKING NOISE WITHIN THE BODY MOUNT WHENEVER SHE MADE A LEFT OR RIGHT TURN OR STOPPED THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FIVE TIME TO REPLACE THE BODY MOUNT; HOWEVER, THE NOISE CONTINUED TO OCCUR. THE KEY ALSO BECAME STUCK IN THE IGNITION AND THE DEALER MADE SEVERAL UNSUCCESSFUL ATTEMPTS TO DETERMINE WHAT CAUSED THE FAILURE TO OCCUR. THE BATTERY RELAY AND THE IGNITION SWITCH WERE REPLACED BUT DID NOT CORRECT THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 13000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 16300.
