Warranty dont cover T-Bar Crank

It?s time for GM to man up!

I think GM has superbly marketed their line of SUVs and has burned quite an impression into the market that Hummer is a superior, rugged and capable off-road vehicle. When you compare the clientele of Hummer buyers to luxury vehicle buyers, there should be a high expectation that the vehicle will be used for more than grocery transport and Saturday night debauchery with the lady types.

If aflax24 needs to crank his T-bars so he can successfully run core samples of the Earth to scientist in Antarctica, there should be a level of professional understanding by GM to do what it takes to keep his truck running.

I agree

Come out come out bro... lot of people here can help and that is bull. call hummer customer service and start a ticket. then ask for in writing the refusal to repair or check for the problem. Then talk to the service Mgr. and GM. Then hummer. If that doesn't work call another dealer that might want you biz. All else fails call the state AG and start a file taht they will have to answer.

Come on let's go

If you are referring to my post...I guess it is time to sell. I agree maybe the dealer should first explain what happens if it is due to the cranking of the rods, but if the noise is due to the cranking of the rods, exactly how do you expect the dealer to repair? Will the dealer install an aftermarket item to prevent the noise, should they spend hundreds to invent something, should they pray over it?
Sorry, the dealer will only and should only do an authorized repair on the vehicle. Doing anything else, leaves the dealer open for possible legal problems in the future if their "homemade" fix fails.

F5, one can only assume warranty is lost?



I see your point, but based on a torsion adjustment, were not talking a catastrophic overhaul to the vehicle. Engineers building these types of vehicles must take in consideration the possibilities of a owner making these types of common adjustments to an intended off-road vehicle.

He should fight it, I know I would.

Its a slippery slope, but I think I would respect f5's response. I think his original response was very open and right on. If your cranking Tbars caused the problem, its your problem. Mechanical failure otherwise is GMs problem. I find it hard to argue with that. As we say with doctors, get a second opinion.

I respect any valid response, especially from F5; it won't stop me from a friendly debate though.

Well, why stop there. Let's say he can twin turbo the five cylinder, do a complete power kit to the trans, smaller torque converter; damn the thought that GM only tested the vehicle the way it left the factory. Those GD supplies have to get there right away.

Over the past 20 years I have owned over 15 new vehicles and all of them were lifted. I have never had any problems with work being covered under warrenty. Even with my F-350 with a 10" lift and 38's. The dealers in my area are even selling new vehicles with lifts already installed on them. That's BS!
