I guess I'm one of the high mileage guys with two long trips and 31,879 miles as of this morning. I haven't taken mine back for the wiper recall but will do that eventually, and I'm very satisfied with the fit and finish and performance. The Onstar has been a surprise as I never thought I would use it, but it came in handy when I was without my cell phone and got to call an ambulance for a diabetic going into insulin shock, and I've used it a few other times. Green Latern and Neocon get my votes for pictures of the month - something about a Hummer covered in mud! I still love driving mine, and it appeals to the bling types and the serious offroaders as well.

I had a Mercedes ML, the H-3 is far more reliable and drives just as nice. I added a high output battery, replaced the rear windshield washer. 4 months no problems. Dealer even loans me another H-3 when it is in the shop.

I have owned my H3 since August and have 4,100 miles on it. The only incident I had was the rear washer recall. I still smile everyday I get in my H3. I am 100% pleased with the H3. I can't even think of one thing to complain about.

I have a good friend who was looking at the H3. He read "all the posts on the H3 site," and told me he thinks the H3s are having too many teething problems.
I told him I've had mine since June and except for the transfer case not being filled properly on the early models, I've never been back to the dealer or had any problems after they topped mine off. Mine has had some hard use on the highway on trips, offroad and in the mud.
It always seems those with problems scream the loudest. I've also looked back at the separate pictures forum (there are some really good pictures I love looking at) and the problems posting on this forum and 11 of those with problems by my count never posted pictures - do they really own H3s? Whatever happened to H3Lady and her window trim? If you're happy speak up!

no problems here. but if I do, the dealer will take care of it. you get a loaner (another h3) and the warranty will last for 4 years, 50,000 miles, pretty much the whole time I will own it. not really a concern of mine. ohh, and a free car wash for it's lifetime, the dealer is a mile from my work. Sewell Hummer is a class act.

my friend/neighbor just bought one too. black, on black, on black. it's pretty sharp. need to get a group photo

1 month 2300 miles. I've never had a vehicle turn so many heads. No matter what you get, a lemon could be in the bunch. Look at racing, they spend 40-50000 on an engine and it blows in the 1st lap. Dealers can make or brake how you feel about the vehicle no matter what it is. Luckily we ended up with a good dealer. So far anyway..

10,000 miles in 5 months.

Only real problem was defective battery, although I've had door switches stick on after washing or hard rain. That always goes away after it dries out.

If there are new-car related issues with the H3, they must be pretty isolated and addressed pretty quickly.

No rattles, squeaks, or other obnoxious noises (except occasionally from the driver).

I couldn't be more satisfied, and I still grin every time I get in as well.

VIN 695, only problems not caused by me is the belt squeak, and an occasional rough idle. Will take to a dealer for the fix on the squeak and a new re-program to fix the rough idle. Also, squeaky stab bushings, but only when cold.

Latest problem, is it won't shift out of PARK when brake applied, BUT THIS WAS CAUSED BY YOURS TRULY, when running some wires. So, can't blame this one on Hummer.

I had a major tranny failure on my H2 and you know what sh*t happens. I would not get rid of my rig. There are going to be times that some people are going to have more issues than others. Perfect example is I bought a dodge ram 1500 about 10 years ago. Two months later my father in law bought the same type. I never had any problems until 120,000 miles. He had them right off. He had to take his truck down three or four times for major issues. He now has 250,000 miles on it and mine is dead. It may take some time to get the bugs worked out but hell that is what warranties are for.

I have about 4500 miles and no problems. Took it in to re-allign the front because it was pulling to the right. Dealer took care of it and now it is perfect. Now I just need to take it to a body shop to repair the nice gash a tree left on the side rear panel.

Going on 4 Months now, 4200,miles Three concerns:

1st. Split roof rail at A piller. Part ordered / warranty
2nd. it is a money pit. I can't stop ordering cool stuff to put on it.
3rd. It looks better muddy!

I still smile when I walk by it on morning dog walk.

I am very pleased, my guess it is long term keeper!

I've had mine since 08/18 and had the rear wiper recall (replaced while I had an oil change), and the low tire pressure warning has come on when the temp. gets to 55 and above. Not one problem otherwise and I couldn't be happier with quality and performance so far.
