Did I see one on here? Am I crazy? [Wait, don't answer that...] I can't find it, neither can my dealer, so if you can I would be very grateful. Thank in advance.

TonkaH2, let us know what you find. I think the bulletin link Klaus gave you is a good start to bring in to the dealer. I am not sure of your problem specifically, but I had the same problem the link refers to (at 400mi, went the the snow 7k altitude) and when I returned from skiing, I got the warning light. The vehicle looked fine. After driving it the message went away never to be seen again.

I have been experiencing "clicking" at the rear of the H2 with the key out and when getting out of the vehicle. I believe the noise is occurring when you get out of the vehicle, the leveling sensor is in between the signal to adjust level because you stepped out. So the solenoid does a brief click, click click. It is pretty sensitive.

I also had a problem with one side sagging (vehicle not level from the rear). I fixed that by moving the leveling sensor bracket on the rear control arm forward one notch and it leveled itself out (of course I don't believe it was meant to be adjusted, but it saved a trip to the dealer and an loss of the H2 for a week while they scratch their heads).

I think the airbags are awesome for what I use the H2 for (towing,people moving and mellow wheeling). I don't think they are best for off-road. If I was going to spend more time off road, I would switch to springs.
