Ok today marked the day... I have never had anything bad to say until now. It rained today, and real bad might I add, but to the short of the story, got in the H2 to leave, and was like WOW!!!! what is that? WATER, yes folks H2O!!! Water coming from the drivers sun visor, where is attaches to the roof....Water on the dash, floor, some still dripping...
That is it, have had it now, between that, the rattle in the rear door, front door, under the dash, rear panels, AC going out, grease on the sunroof cover, the passenger seat issue, I think that about does it....Time to move on....

I had the same problem and it is a very simple fix. There are drainage tubes that run along the roof line and somewhere down and out. They get kinked (most likely at installation), which causes them to back up and leak. The dealers have a fix for this so just take it in. This means that GM is aware of it and has the remedy. I heard a fauced type sound in mine when it was raining her in SoCal. It eventually backed up and started to drip on my dash. Don't sweat it!

I totally concur!!! buy a rover!If you think quality is an issue with GM, then you've not experienced the LR legacy first-hand. Buying a Rover will definitely give you an appreciative perspective on H2 quality!

Sorry to hear the problems....it can be fixed!


Hummer owner, no Rover envy

Mine started leaking last week on my destin vacation. It started leaking though the Onstar mike. Now, the voice recognition system is out of whack!

Badrap,

You have to much time and $$$ invested to give up that easily.

Besides, you can give up until AFTER we have another local Hummer Happening in Houston.

If its under warranty, take it in and they will fix it.

Check out the OkC Chapter Page!

Saying goodbye is hard to do. If I were you I would go out and get a Cadillac Escalade. Everything that you have for the H2 comes standard for the Escalade. You might not be able to go off road, but ur gonna be the big man in the caddy. Its the most luxurious SUV in the world and its AMAZING. I say go for the Caddy!

BADRAP-

Aren't you like the PRESIDENT of the Houston Hummer Chapter? How can you just give up that easy? Millions of Hummer owning Houstonians are counting on you to take care of them.

I am just a little upset at this point, I am taking it in tomorrow to have a sit down with them about all the issues that I have had since I purchased mine. So I hope that we can hammer things out, I would like to keep it... Just have to wait and see what happens...

Ok according to dealer, it was a pinched vent drain line. They say no big deal, and as a matter of fact, they had about 5 others in there for the same thing. Mine only had a little water in it, I saw one that the carpet, dash and seat were soaked and alot of things were going to have to be replaced. As far as rattles go, we will chase those down soon...Service writer is on vacation, so that will be another trip and more time....

P.S. Got a nice pretty maroon chevy to drive today while they were fixing mine, and washing and waxing it... HAHAHAHAHA too bad it is raining here...but oh well..happens...

Zyx5432 06-26-2003 09:24 PM

Care to share with us exactly where the vent drain line is so we can prevent this from happening?

KenP 06-26-2003 09:43 PM

This is odd. I have not had a leak, but I can hear water draining down the tube. Can anyone else hear the drain tube working?
