I have a good friend who was looking at the H3. He read "all the posts on the H3 site," and told me he thinks the H3s are having too many teething problems.
I told him I've had mine since June and except for the transfer case not being filled properly on the early models, I've never been back to the dealer or had any problems after they topped mine off. Mine has had some hard use on the highway on trips, offroad and in the mud.
It always seems those with problems scream the loudest. I've also looked back at the separate pictures forum (there are some really good pictures I love looking at) and the problems posting on this forum and 11 of those with problems by my count never posted pictures - do they really own H3s? Whatever happened to H3Lady and her window trim? If you're happy speak up!

8,400 miles no problems and it has been used as intended

Just like survey's, 90% of the people that complete them are those who are unhappy w/ the service or whatever. Same rings true here. Negativity always speaks louder. (Not saying that everyone who's made a compliant against their H3 hates it...so don't get your panties in a wad, k?!)

I've had small problems (knock on wood) with mine (radio buttons flaking, recalled rear window washer, and the recent boot leak), but......

I LOVE MY H3!!!

No problems here after 5 months and 7,000 miles.

LOL...I've had mine a whole week and I love it!!!! But my offroading days are over so my H3 will never see mud. I know, I know. But that is just me! We had a 1979 (dare I say) Ford F-150 with a 429 bored something over I think 30, and it had 38" swampers, we did our fair share of the offroading on BlackRock up, down, backwards. That was enough for me...LOL. So my H3 will remain shiny.

That's the reason why I am selling mine. Too many problems, mechanical problems, dealer's customer service sucks. Overall it was a bad experience buying this vehicle. I can count about 20 different problems that I have with my vehicle that the dealer is looking the other way. If I take to the dealer where I bought it from, there is a 1 1/2 week waiting period.

Oh by the way I have 18,000 miles in the damm thing. I don't wanna take a right going all the way to 50,000 miles.

I had an H3, built in 6/05, for 5800 miles, with zero problems.

I have owned my H3 since August and have 4,100 miles on it. The only incident I had was the rear washer recall. I still smile everyday I get in my H3. I am 100% pleased with the H3. I can't even think of one thing to complain about.

no problems here. but if I do, the dealer will take care of it. you get a loaner (another h3) and the warranty will last for 4 years, 50,000 miles, pretty much the whole time I will own it. not really a concern of mine. ohh, and a free car wash for it's lifetime, the dealer is a mile from my work. Sewell Hummer is a class act.

my friend/neighbor just bought one too. black, on black, on black. it's pretty sharp. need to get a group photo

Thank you Ken...glad someone put him in his place... <BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content">Originally posted by KenP:

I've had mine since 08/18 and had the rear wiper recall (replaced while I had an oil change), and the low tire pressure warning has come on when the temp. gets to 55 and above. Not one problem otherwise and I couldn't be happier with quality and performance so far.

I had a major tranny failure on my H2 and you know what sh*t happens. I would not get rid of my rig. There are going to be times that some people are going to have more issues than others. Perfect example is I bought a dodge ram 1500 about 10 years ago. Two months later my father in law bought the same type. I never had any problems until 120,000 miles. He had them right off. He had to take his truck down three or four times for major issues. He now has 250,000 miles on it and mine is dead. It may take some time to get the bugs worked out but hell that is what warranties are for.

x2

5 months/3700 miles = not a single problem so far.

VIN 695, only problems not caused by me is the belt squeak, and an occasional rough idle. Will take to a dealer for the fix on the squeak and a new re-program to fix the rough idle. Also, squeaky stab bushings, but only when cold.

Latest problem, is it won't shift out of PARK when brake applied, BUT THIS WAS CAUSED BY YOURS TRULY, when running some wires. So, can't blame this one on Hummer.

Have had my rig for three months and have had 1 alignment problem which was caused by me. The dealer turned my car around in under a half day with giving me a rental. I've previously owned an Audi, Saab, and LR3. The audi and land rover were in the shop within the first two months. As somebody already mentioned, everytime i get in the truck I smile. Too bad I'm moving and it's not coming with me till the summer time

I guess I'm one of the high mileage guys with two long trips and 31,879 miles as of this morning. I haven't taken mine back for the wiper recall but will do that eventually, and I'm very satisfied with the fit and finish and performance. The Onstar has been a surprise as I never thought I would use it, but it came in handy when I was without my cell phone and got to call an ambulance for a diabetic going into insulin shock, and I've used it a few other times. Green Latern and Neocon get my votes for pictures of the month - something about a Hummer covered in mud! I still love driving mine, and it appeals to the bling types and the serious offroaders as well.

No problems here. Just the wiper recall that the dealer took care of. Very happy with the vehicle.

11,500 miles and 7 months on my H3 and minimal problems. Had a seat cushion snap fixed by dealer during my first oil change and I've seen my STABTRACK light come on for a few minutes once but that's it. Impressed with overall quality after owning many Toyotas and Hondas for daily drivers.

S.

1 month 2300 miles. I've never had a vehicle turn so many heads. No matter what you get, a lemon could be in the bunch. Look at racing, they spend 40-50000 on an engine and it blows in the 1st lap. Dealers can make or brake how you feel about the vehicle no matter what it is. Luckily we ended up with a good dealer. So far anyway..

I have had mine around 7 months now .. 9,000 miles no issues .. Best vehicle I have ever owned ..

Had it about 6 months just turned 7,000 only problem was the top rail has small crack and dealer ordered and will replace under warranty.Other small issue was resolved by a rear view camera .Best truck I ever owned I plan on keeping it long term.Just want to keep adding stuff.

7500 miles
1. Rearend replaced
2. Rear washer replaced
Took one week to get the rearend. Dropped off in the morning picked it up that night. Same with the rear washer. I love it! Have had several Toyota trucks and 4 runners in the past and have had problems with them as well. It's under warranty and the dealership has bent over backwards to resolve the problems. First year out you will sometimes have issues.
Just waiting for a SUT version with a v8!!
V8 only to help pull the bigger tires I put on.

3 weeks and its one of the best built cars I have ever owned - zero problems and certainly one of the most enjoyable. Even my wife fell in love with it after she drove it (was not a big fan before she drove it). I hope the H3/Stolstice/C6 are a sign of things to come from GM - well built, desirable and good buys.

No problems. I was saying that I'm amazed how I can beat the truck offroad, and when I get back on the highway, it's just as tight as before. No squeeks or rattles. I was going 55mph down a dirt road this morning just beating the suspension and no problems. I love it. 14,000 miles

10,000 miles in 5 months.

Only real problem was defective battery, although I've had door switches stick on after washing or hard rain. That always goes away after it dries out.

If there are new-car related issues with the H3, they must be pretty isolated and addressed pretty quickly.

No rattles, squeaks, or other obnoxious noises (except occasionally from the driver).

I couldn't be more satisfied, and I still grin every time I get in as well.

7800 miles in about 100 days. No problems. Thsi vehicle gets a lot of mountain driving and has gone everywhere I have aksed it to go. Record snowfall this year and today I drove down and unplowed road in 12" of snow...no sweat.

My only issue is the ovespray onto the rear fenders from the front tires. I have the mud flaps but there is stillsignifdicant spray.....

I also think the wiper blades suck. They get iced over and frozen in an arc becoming useless. Get out clean off and in a mimutes they suck agian...in heavy snow. Cannot find a good replacement yet.

Yellow 5 Speed Luxury pkg, Black Leather, SunRoof, Black and Chrome accents. Black Brush guard and steps. Company logos on the way.

5 months and almost 8000 miles. Only problems have been minor, like sunroof rattle which the dealer has taken care of. Oh yeah and the ******* who slashed my tires, but I still wouldn't choose to drive anyother vehicle. The only other problem I've had is that my girlfriend loves my H3 so much that she wants me to buy her an H2. I think I should buy myself the H2 and give my H3.

I bought 2 H-3's & I have a complaint.

A newer ford windstar pulled a Georgia Turn next to me the other day (in other words he was in the left lane and i was in the right lane) and he decided he wanted to make a right hand turn. We were head to head as he turned. His front quarter panel and bumper have around $1200 in damage. After I wiped his pin stripe off my bumper I had $0.00 damage (DAMN I CAN"T MAKE A CLAIM)...

Sure there are complaints about the H-3 and I have a few about the location/design of a few things

BUT

what other vehicle has a posting site as big as this!!!

RYD

Got mine June 06, have 27,000 Km on it and othet than a broken piece of trim and a burnt trailer wire, mine has been perfect. It is without a dought one of the most enjoyable vehicles I have ever owned. Just started it up on Sunday and let it warm up (been away since Nov.) I was grinning from ear to ear. Cant wait for spring.

Going on 4 Months now, 4200,miles Three concerns:

1st. Split roof rail at A piller. Part ordered / warranty
2nd. it is a money pit. I can't stop ordering cool stuff to put on it.
3rd. It looks better muddy!

I still smile when I walk by it on morning dog walk.

I am very pleased, my guess it is long term keeper!

I have had mine for almost 48 hours and 150 miles, not a single problem

.

10k miles
8 months

going into service today to fix:
drivers side tail light is loose
some kind of loud rattle coming from suspension
headboard rattles
skidplate bolts keep falling out

previously fixed
loose tierod
the rear washer


got my big rattle after this ****

I have about 4500 miles and no problems. Took it in to re-allign the front because it was pulling to the right. Dealer took care of it and now it is perfect. Now I just need to take it to a body shop to repair the nice gash a tree left on the side rear panel.
