6% of complaints about the 2003 Hummer H2 came in the first year, which is unremarkable for a 2003 vehicle — around the middle of the 228 model-years on record. The median complaint arrives at 5.9 yr in service. The most-reported system is visibility (50 complaints), typically at 6.2 yr or about 63,000 miles.
GM IS RECALLING 13,358 MY 2003 HUMMER H2 VEHICLES. SOME OF THESE VEHICLES HAVE A CONDITION IN WHICH WATER CAN ENTER THE WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR MODULE. IF A SUFFICIENT AMOUNT OF WATER ENTERS THE MODULE, OVER TIME, THE FRONT WINDSHIELD WIPERS MAY WORK INTERMITTENTLY OR THEY MAY BECOME INOPERATIVE.
IF THIS WERE TO OCCUR, DRIVER VISIBILITY COULD BE REDUCED, WHICH COULD RESULT IN A VEHICLE CRASH.
CERTAIN FABTECH AFTERMARKET REPLACEMENT PITMAN ARMS, P/NOS. FTS71000 AND FTS71001, INSTALLED FOR USE ON CERTAIN 2001-2006 GM C/K 2500 PICK UP TRUCKS AND SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES. THE PIN LOCATED INSIDE THE PITMAN ARM CAN SHEAR OFF DUE TO A REVERSE BENDING FATIGUE CONDITION, RESULTING IN A TOTAL LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL.
LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL COULD LEAD TO A VEHICLE CRASH WITH POTENTIAL INJURY OR DEATH.
CERTAIN SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, PICKUP TRUCKS, AND PASSENGER VANS FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 135, ?PASSENGER CAR BRAKE SYSTEMS.? SOME OF THESE VEHICLES WERE PRODUCED WITH AN OUT-OF-SPECIFICATION BRAKE HYDRO-BOOST HOUSING RELIEF VALVE BORE.
CONSEQUENTLY, THE VALVE O-RING SEAL MAY FRACTURE. STEERING EFFORTS MAY BE SLIGHTLY INCREASED WHILE BRAKING OR PARKING. UNDER CERTAIN DRIVING CONDITIONS, A FRACTURED SEAL MAY REQUIRE A SLIGHT INCREASE IN THE APPLIED BRAKE PEDAL EFFORT TO ACHIEVE THE SAME VEHICLE DECELERATION RATE AS PRIOR TO THE SEAT FRACTURE.
CERTAIN SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 114, "THEFT PROTECTION." THESE VEHICLES ARE EQUIPPED WITH A MECHANICAL OVERRIDE THAT COULD ALLOW THE IGNITION KEY TO BE REMOVED WITH THE SHIFT LEVER IN A POSITION OTHER THAN PARK. IN ADDITION, THESE VEHICLES HAVE AN OVERRIDE THAT CAN ALLOW THE TRANSMISSION TO BE SHIFTED OUT OF PARK WITH THE IGNITION IN THE OFF POSITION.
THESE OVERRIDES ARE NOT PERMITTED UNLESS THE VEHICLE HAS A LOCKING STEERING COLUMN.
CERTAIN SPORT UTILITY AND PASSENGER VEHICLES EXHIBIT A CONDITION IN WHICH THE WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR COULD FAIL DURING USE BECAUSE OF IMPROPER MANUFACTURE.
IF THIS WERE TO OCCUR IN SEVERE WEATHER, DRIVER VISIBILITY COULD BE REDUCED, WHICH COULD RESULT IN A VEHICLE CRASH.
I OWN A 2003 HUMMER H2. THIS IS THE SECOND WINTER WITH THIS CAR AND THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED EVERYTIME I DRIVE IN SNOW. I CLEANED THE ENTIRE WINDSHIELD INCLUDING SNOW AND ICE UNDER THE WIPERS, I WARM UP THE CAR PROPERLY, I TURN THE DEFROST ON (LAST NIGHT IT WAS SET AT 80 DEGREES)/ WITHIN A FEW MILES THE WIPERS ARE INEFFECTIVE BECAUSE A LAYER OF ICE AND SNOW HAS ACCUMULATED BETWEEN THE WINDSHIELD AND THE WIPER BLADES. VISIBILITY---ZERO. *LA
ANY TIME IT RAINS THE VEHICLE FILLS UP WITH WATER. THE DEALER HAS REPLACED THE SUN ROOF, THE GASKET IN THE DRIVERS DOOR, AND THE CARGO HATCH. THE ELECTRIC DRIVERS SEAT MOVES UP AUTOMATICALLY WHEN THE VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF CAUSING THE DRIVER TO BE CRUSHED AGAINST THE DASH BOARD. THE CONSUMER FEELS THAT THE HOOD IS TOO HEAVY AND THAT THERE IS NO SUPPORT BAR TO HOLD IT UP. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER SEVEN TIMES SINCE THE CONSUMER PURCHASED IT. *MR
