2008 Hummer H3. Consumer writes in regards to vehicle blower motor resistor connector recall repairs. The consumer stated she received a recall notice six days after the ac went out in her vehicle. Before receiving the notice, the consumer took the vehicle to a repair shop on August 5, 2015 because the ac was not blowing out any air. The repair shop replaced the blower motor resistor for the amount of $ $233.66. The first course of action was to replace the blower motor resistor connector with the hopes the blower resistor connector hadn't burned. However, it was discovered the connector had indeed burned. When the consumer was finally able to get the connector, the cost to replace it was $ $248.64. When the consumer received the recall notice, she called the dealer. However, she was informed the parts were not available.

The connector module that controls the blower motor speed in the heat/vent/air conditioning (HVAC) system may overheat under extended operational periods at high medium-high blower speeds. If this condition occurs, there the risk that the heat generated could melt the plastic surrounding the connector module, which increases the risk of a fire. Ours has been missed up for 2 months. Please hurry and get the part. We can not drive it because it overheats. We have had it in a shop three times and can not get it to work. Thank you. Recall is 15V421
