OMG! My rear right rotor is back to making 'that' sound again!!!
I just got my H3 back 2 weeks ago tomorrow after it had been at the dealer service dept. for 11 days. (Rotor resurfaced and pad replacement) A week prior to that, it was in for 7 days for cylinder head/valve replacement .. prior to that .... the list goes on. Anyways, I was on the way home tonight, stopped at a light and heard THAT rotor sound again as I was coming to a stop. AGHHHH! We're leaving on a trip this weekend WITH the H3. Of course, I'm not going to drive it like this. I left a message for the service manager tonight letting him know. I need a loaner and it better not be a sedan!  I also realized this afternoon that my roof rail is cracked. Buuuuut, I still love my H3!

Re: OMG! My rear right rotor is back to making 'that' sound again!!!
Mines still good. they did pads in rear and resurfaced rotor.
I dont know whats going on with your dealer but mine had me out of there in 2 hours for that repair.
I know they changed the pads. Maybee your dealer used the same pads?
Im leaving for a road trip to North Crackalaky then to Ga this afternoon.
Hope allm works well with the dealer otherwise on your trip stop by another dealer if you still have problems.

WTF
Why can't the mechanic do a brake job right?
Can you tell if it the pads and rotors or the e-brake?? Is the rotor scratched??
I am not sure if the rear e-brake system uses the disc brakes or a small drum brake??
explorers and jeeps use this system

They figured mine out quick ,no problems.

H3 uses the scrub type for the e brake ,its seperate.

Re: OMG! My rear right rotor is back to making 'that' sound again!!!
 I'm taking it to the dealer service dept within the hour. They had a sedan loaner for me. I told them no, I'm going on Nevada and need an SUV. They found me a Jeep (Grand Cherokee, I think). They've always given me an Escalade .. I think they should have tried harder this time since the H3 is going back in again. Anyways, the reason they had it 11 days the last time was because they didn't believe me when I told them it was a rotor/pad problem. After having a similar problem with our Jeep Grand Cherokee when it was new .. and with fourfourto's experience .. I just knew. At first, he called and told me it was the usual noise with these trucks .. not a problem. He said it 'just needed lubing'. I picked it up and returned it same day. Service Mgr heard it. They tried three sets of new pads .. each one made the sound worse. They called in two Hummer specialists. They told them to resurface the rotor and put on some extra heavy duty pads. This is why it took 11 days. The service dept told me they HAD to go step by step .. they couldn't go straight to the rotors. When the outsourced survey person for the dealer called me the other night, I told her I would have gotten it back in a day IF they had listened to me and AT LEAST checked for that problem first. It turned out I was right in the end .. the Service Mgr apologized. Just yesterday I received my Hummer survey for this past repair. I'm holding onto it. The problem is back. Leaving on my trip without my Hummer and will be gone the week.
