Did you contact the Hummer telephone number -- any more info than this? Should we be worrying?
thanks

It didn't sound like anything major to me. Increased power needed for braking? I'm pretty much used to that already! I'm not going to bother with it until they issue a formal notice. Then they'll at least have a solution and parts in stock at the dealer.
