Default Re: Rear Brake/Axle Groan...

I tryed calling the hummer CSR manager she hasnt got back to me with a update yet.The dealers still saying cant reach field rep.

Just living with the noise for now.

F5 I dont beleve its the tranfer case because the noise wouldnt have gone away when pads were replaced and the dealer confirmed the noise is comming from the brake area?..But what do they know?

No new updates on the brakes ? any mention of a problem?

No apparent problem with rear brakes on the H3, or the 1/2 ton pickups that use the same system. That doesn't mean it isn't the problem on your vehicle or Hmmmm3. Two vehicles or even 100 times your two vehicles would not affect warranty that much on a vehicle with the sales number the H3 has.
But your symptoms sure sound like mine, and the noise went away with a new t/case.

Maybe something will snap or explode in the case or the brakes .
Then they will know what and how to fix.
I regulary use 4h lock and 4low(at least once a month,not always for long periods)and I dont notice anything wrong with the case.All seems normal

If the dealer doesnt do anything by the end of January.
I will inspect myself when doing a tire rotation.(Im hoping issues will be fixed by then)

Noise is pissing me off even though Im getting used to it and my wife drives it every day.She loves the 3 even with the noise

Plan Z- Drilled and sloted rotors with ceramic pads all around

I've had a grinding noise for a while, slow easy stops and it sounds and feels like shoe brakes with the pads worn to the rivits from the REAR, took it in and they sanded the front. WHO KNOWS!

Will take it back before 12000 miles when I have other issues also.

Its not a MOAN but GRINDING and is most noticeable in slow light pressure stopping...

???????

I got a call from the HCS manager susan,she said she had contact with field rep(he was on vacation )funny how they couldnt reach him for over 6 weeks?.
She said he will contact the service manager.She would not give me his name. (whats up with that f5 the service manger wouldnt give me field reps name either? they said only one in the area LI NY.The dealer is ramp hummer in st james Ny)she also said someone else would be taking over as HCS manager because its her last day in that dept.

So far no word from sevice manager I left a message today for him he was not available.

Its one small step foward but im still fustrated over the whole thing GRrr grrr

I would have had a Lawyer by now. That is just ridiculous.

You don't have to sue, but a letter might be good to get that 600lb gorilla off its ass.
