Yeah...

I saw a full-sized Ford that lost its front right wheel 2 days ago. Don't think the problem is isolated to Hummers.

so why isn't there an article about FORD (found on road dead)

Biased media conspiracy.

we have had 2 twoed in for this, but the drivers admitted they were agressive/abusive and both were trying to climb straight up walls. they knew they could not climb them, they just wanted to get the trucks as straight up as possible for pics. both ran into stone cliffs trying to acheive this and the ball joints separated. looked cool when they came in. couple hour fix and they werre out in the woods again

Hey folks.
I am the Sacramento Bee reporter who wrote the story about the NHTSA probe into H2 steering knuckle failures that are causing suspensions to either collpase or wheels to fall off.

20of the 26 cases involve 2003 Model year H2 and ZI reported that GM changed the part for Model 2004 year H2s.

I'd be interested in talking to any of you who own a 2003 H2 either in this forum or off line to see if you think GM should recall the steering knuckle or not. Gm denies there's a problem and says there's no safety issue... yet if you read my story there are some H2 owners who clearly disagree...

My number is 916-321-1215 or my e-mail is amcintosh@sacbee.com.

Why would it matter what we "think GM should do"? You're just going to skew the piece to make it serve your anti-Hummer agenda anyway.
BTW, I've got an '03 with 75K miles on it. My rig is reliable as the media is biased - EXTREMELY.

I have an early 2003. My wheels fall off all the time. I'm seriously getting sick of it.
